Direction is downward for the rupee


Indian rupee is gaining on expectation that lower commodity prices will translate into lower current account deficit.  Rupee is at a critical juncture where the next two weeks trend could tell us the direction till end June. 53.70 is the key support for usd/inr may futures and there will be a crash to 53.06 and 52.50. Yen may futures needs to trade over 54.06 to prevent another round of selling. We expect the rupee to gain further will prefer to use a sell on rise strategy for May futures with a stop loss of 55.75  till end may. With government hell bent on selling even national importance sectors such as telecom (proposed 100% FDI) to overseas investors among other rupee will gain. 
 

Trading strategy For the very large traders and high risk traders
  • USD/INR APRIL 2013: Sell below 54.03 stop loss 54.13 for 53.9225-53.7225
  • EURO/INR APRIL 2013: Sell on rise with a stop loss of over 71.22 for Monday
  • GBP/INR APRIL 2013: Watch 82.60 and trade accordingly
  • JPY/INR APRIL 2013: Buy if and only if jpy/inr trades over 55.0600
