With Interactive Brokers there are no costs (only $2 fee for any amount) as you convert at the Interbank rate.
First of all, investing you need to hold USD in any case and second even if you need to convert back you can wait for a better rate and pick up some yield there.
The guy posted that he is fairly liquid hence no rush to convert back to CHF at a worst rate for an urgent need.
Keep enough CHF to cover any potential needs in the near future.
