USD/INR Price News: Indian rupee rebound remains elusive beyond 20-day EMA

USD/INR snaps four-day uptrend, extends pullback from three-week top.
MACD teases bulls above short-term EMA, descending trend line from October 12 guards immediate upside.

USD/INR bounces off intraday low to 74.54, down 0.05% on a day during early Thursday. In doing so, the Indian rupee (INR) pair keeps the previous day’s pullback from the highest levels since November 03.

While a U-turn from the multi-day high justifies the pair’s inability to provide a daily close beyond a six-week-old resistance line, the quote’s sustained trading beyond 20-day EMA keeps buyers hopeful. Also favoring the USD/INR bulls is the MACD line that recently marked a bullish cross and inches towards the positive region.

That said, the pair buyers will seek a daily closing past the stated trend line resistance, around 74.62 by the press time, to extend the weekly run-up.

Following that, the 75.00 threshold and the monthly high near 75.15 may probe the USD/INR upside ahead of the previous monthly peak of 75.65.

Alternatively, a clear downside break of the 20-day EMA level of 74.45 will direct the USD/INR sellers towards an ascending support line from early September, near 74.08 by the press time.

Also acting as important support levels are the lows marked during the last week around the 74.00 round figure and the monthly trough of 73.85.

GBP/USD adds to the recent bearish tone, approaching to the key 1.3300 support to reach fresh YTD troughs against the backdrop of the robust performance of the US Dollar. Indeed, Cable’s decline comes amid the firm demand for the safe-haven space in the wake of the US and Israel attacks to Iran.

Gold eases some ground, approaches $5,300

Gold now surrenders part of the earlier advance, reshifting its attenton to the $5,300 zone per troy ounce at the beginning of the week.
