USD/CHF Technical Analysis: Sell-off stalled

• The back-to-back "long-tailed" candle seen in the USD/CHF 4-hour chart indicates the sell-off from the Aug. 29 high of 0.9969 has likely run out of steam, although it is still too early to call a corrective rally as the falling trendline is intact.
• Further, the path of least resistance is to the downside as the 4H 100MA is located below the 200MA. So, a corrective rally above the falling trendline could be short-lived.
• As of now, the spot seems to have found a temporary bottom around 0.9652.
