- The USD/MXN pair is rising today after falling during four days in-a-row on the back of a weaker US dollar. So far today, gains are limited and price remains above a key support level, supporting the bullish tone.
- To the downside, the area between 19.25 and 19.30 is a crucial support: 20-day moving average, uptrend line, and horizontal level. A daily close significantly below would clear the way to more losses and potentially to a test of 19.00 and the medium-term uptrend seen at 18.97.
- If the pair holds on top of 19.30, the bullish bias will remain in place. The US dollar needs to recover on top of 19.40 to gain momentum. The key resistance levels are seen at 19.45 and 19.60. Above 19.60 the next target is seen at 19.85.
