USD/INR bears poke a multi-day-old support line around 81.80 as it braces for the third consecutive weekly loss on early Friday. Apart from the stated support line, the Good Friday holiday and cautious mood ahead of the US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) release also challenge the Indian Rupee (INR) pair.

It’s worth noting, however, that a daily closing below the support-turned-resistance line from the last September, around 82.00 by the press time, joins the bearish MACD signals to keep USD/INR sellers hopeful of breaking the immediate 81.80 support.

Following that, the quote can quickly drop to the previous monthly low of around 81.50.

Though, a convergence of the 200-DMA and a five-month-old ascending trend line, close to 81.40 at the latest, appears a tough nut to crack for the USD/INR bears afterward.

Meanwhile, USD/INR recovery remains elusive unless the pair stays below the 82.00 previous support.

Even if the quote rises past 82.00, a downward-sloping resistance line from March 22, around 82.35 at the latest, can test the USD/INR bulls.

Above all, USD/INR buyers should remain cautious unless witnessing a daily close beyond the descending resistance line from October 2022, near 83.00 by the press time.
