USD/MXN Price Analysis: Mexican peso continues to test the 19.80 barrier
|- USD/MXN with bearish bias while below 19.95.
- Consolidation under 19.80 points to more weakness ahead.
- Immediate resistance at 19.95 followed by 20.00; upside limited under 20.15.
The USD/MXN is rising on Monday but it moved off highs and pulled back. The pair traded momentarily above 19.90 and then dropped below 19.85, and is it looking again at the key support around 19.80.
The critical support area around 19.80 has held fine so far and triggered a rebound, but it is still exposed and being challenged. A daily close below would reinforce the bearish bias, exposing the 19.50 key level (intermediate support at 19.70).
The 19.95 has become the immediate resistance, followed by 20.00, an area that also contains the 20 and 55-day Simple Moving Average. A break higher would expose the 20.15/20.20 key resistance. A break higher would suggest more gains ahead, targeting 20.45.
