I think switch case isn't needed here since we have to check two variables char & prev here. can i use ternary operator instead ?

Something like this

  return !string.split('').reduce((prev, char) => {
    const result = prev < 0 ? prev : char === '(' ? ++prev : char === ')' ? --prev : prev;
    return result;
  }, 0);
