Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/CHF continues to range trade at 1.2009. There isn’t much to write about this pair, they have been locked in this range for over 2 months, as the SNB continues to protect the floor of 1.20. The euro was weak today, as market sentiment turned negative after the mess with Spain and worries about the Greek elections.
