Key Quotes
24-hour view: “We expected USD to ‘trade within a range of 7.0260/7.0800’ yesterday. However, USD traded within a narrower range than expected (7.0225/7.0609). The underlying tone has firmed somewhat and USD is likely to trade with an upward bias. That said, any advance is not expected to break 7.0850. On the downside, a breach of 7.0400 would indicate that the mild upward bias has eased.”
Next 1-3 weeks: “Our update from yesterday (15 Nov, spot at 7.0465) still stands. As highlighted, there is room for USD to drop further to 7.0130 but oversold short-term conditions could lead to consolidation first. Overall, only a break of 7.1200 (no change in ‘strong resistance’ level from yesterday) would indicate that USD is not weakening further.”
