Overbought conditions suggest 7.4000 is unlikely to come into view
24-HOUR VIEW: "USD gapped opened today and appears to have risen above last month’s high of 7.3700. While USD could rise further, conditions are already overbought, and the major resistance at 7.4000 is unlikely to come into view. On the downside, any pullback is unlikely to threaten last Friday’s low of 7.3150."
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "The strong opening gap in USD today suggests further advance, but we expect the 7.4000 level to provide resistance. To maintain the rapid buildup in momentum, USD must remain above 7.2950. On a short-term note, 7.3150 is already quite a strong support level."
