How boundaries are counted

Down includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.7920 counts as Down.

Up includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.8080 counts as Up.

Within is strictly between 0.7920 and 0.8080. The three outcomes cannot overlap and always sum to 100%.

Down includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.7600 counts as Down.

Up includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.8400 counts as Up.

Within is strictly between 0.7600 and 0.8400. The three outcomes cannot overlap and always sum to 100%.

Down includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.7200 counts as Down.

Up includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.8800 counts as Up.

Within is strictly between 0.7200 and 0.8800. The three outcomes cannot overlap and always sum to 100%.

Down includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 0.4000 counts as Down.

Up includes its boundary: a rate of exactly 1.2000 counts as Up.

Within is strictly between 0.4000 and 1.2000. The three outcomes cannot overlap and always sum to 100%.

All movement thresholds

AI average for the ECB reference rate for Friday, 30 Apr 2027, from the 0.8000 reference. Rates are Swiss francs per US dollar. All four thresholds are on this page; choosing one updates the panels above.

Within ranges exclude both boundaries. Wider thresholds always have a larger Within share: the estimates nest consistently. A 50% move in a major currency pair is extremely unlikely; the estimate is shown rather than hidden so all four thresholds stay comparable. Values shown as “<0.1%” or “>99.9%” are bounds; the underlying values sum to 100%.

Compare sources

Selected threshold ±1%. Every source uses the same event and the same 0.8000 reference, and is listed in Down / Within / Up order. OpenAI and Claude differ by up to 1 percentage point at ±1%.

Selected threshold ±5%. Every source uses the same event and the same 0.8000 reference, and is listed in Down / Within / Up order. OpenAI and Claude differ by up to 3 percentage points at ±5%.

Selected threshold ±10%. Every source uses the same event and the same 0.8000 reference, and is listed in Down / Within / Up order. OpenAI and Claude differ by up to 3 percentage points at ±10%.

Selected threshold ±50%. Every source uses the same event and the same 0.8000 reference, and is listed in Down / Within / Up order. OpenAI and Claude give the same estimates at ±50%.

AI average — method

Simple mean of the OpenAI and Claude probabilities for each outcome, rounded so the three sum to 100. Uncalibrated: it has not been adjusted using settled outcomes.

Both models receive the same evidence pack and reference price, so their estimates are not statistically independent. Averaging two runs does not double the information.

OpenAI — run details

Model: [OpenAI model ID from run metadata] · Run: 31 Oct 2026, 06:09 UTC · Evidence pack: [pack ID]

Returns a probability distribution over 26 return bins; all four thresholds are computed from it. Checked to sum to 100 and to nest across thresholds before publishing.

Claude — run details

Model: [Anthropic model ID from run metadata] · Run: 31 Oct 2026, 06:10 UTC · Evidence pack: [pack ID]

Returns a probability distribution over 26 return bins; all four thresholds are computed from it. Checked to sum to 100 and to nest across thresholds before publishing.

Statistical reference — method

Synthetic fixture: lognormal rate at the target with zero median change and 5.6% volatility over the horizon (about 8% a year).

A simple baseline from price history. It is not a market-implied (risk-neutral) estimate, and no claim is made that it is more or less accurate than the models.

Why these estimates?

Directional factors follow the quote (Swiss francs per US dollar): “higher” means USD/CHF rises. Each item says whether it is a reported fact or the model’s inference.

What could push USD/CHF higher?

  1. [Reported fact] Reported fact

    [Fact quoted from source 2 with its own date, for example a published inflation figure.] 2

  2. Risk sentiment Model inference

    A broad shift in global risk appetite could favour the US dollar against the Swiss franc before the target date. 3

What could push it lower?

  1. Rate differential Model inference

    If the Swiss National Bank keeps rates higher for longer than the Federal Reserve, the Swiss franc tends to gain against the US dollar. 1

  2. [Reported fact] Reported fact

    [Fact quoted from source 4 with its own date.] 4

Prediction-market context

No contract on USD/CHF settles near April 2027, and no related contract was found. Market evidence is left out rather than shown as 0%.

Options-implied (risk-neutral) estimates are a different kind of evidence and are not shown in this version. How sources are matched

What this forecast may miss

  • Moves between fixings. The ECB rate is one daily observation; market rates at other times can differ.
  • Weekend news. Anything after 31 Oct 2026, 06:12 UTC enters only with a new version.
  • Calibration. Very few USD/CHF forecasts have settled; the AI average is uncalibrated.
