Key Quotes
“In line with expectations, USD dipped initially towards 114.20 (low of 114.18) before rebounding quickly to exceed the 115.05/10 target with a high of 115.44. The subsequent sharp drop from the high is gaining momentum and a move below last week’s 113.73 low would not be surprising”.
“The immediate bias is still tilted to the downside but downward momentum is showing signs of waning. However, confirmation of a short-term low is only upon a move above 116.00. Until then, another leg lower below last week’s 113.70/75 low (next support at 113.10/15) cannot be ruled out just yet even though the odds for such a move are not high”.
