A year of buying CHF
Over the last 364 days CHF closed between $1.2203 (July 28, 2026) and $1.3210 (November 1, 2025). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $102 today; at the high, $94. The current price $1.2457 is above 100 of those 364 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 27% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves CHF by 0.6%: a $1,000 position swings about $6 a day.
