USD/INR Price News: Indian rupee sellers attack 74.00 on Dragonfly Doji near key SMA joint

USD/INR stays well bid around intraday top of 73.95, up 0.22% on a day, amid the initial Indian session on Thursday. In doing so, the quote justifies the previous day’s bullish candlestick above a convergence of 50-day and 200-day SMA.

While the recent corrective pullback is ready to cross the 74.00 threshold, late February tops near 74.20 and a short-term horizontal line close to 74.30 will challenge the further upside.

If at all USD/INR buyers keep reins above 74.30, odds of witnessing the 75.00 round-figure on the chart can’t be ruled out.

Alternatively, a daily closing below 73.65 won’t be enough for USD/INR seller’s entry as March month’s top near 73.60 add extra filter to the south.

Even if the bears manage to break 73.60, multiple levels near 73.20-15 and the 73.00 round-figure may trouble them during further downside.

The AI mirror just turned on tech and nobody likes the reflection

Tech just got hit with a different kind of selloff. Not the usual rates tantrum, not a recession whisper, not even an earnings miss in the classic sense. This was the market staring into an AI mirror and recoiling at its reflection.
