Momentum indicators are turning flat
24-HOUR VIEW: “We highlighted yesterday that ‘while downward momentum has not increased much, there is room for USD to test the 7.3320 level.’ USD did not quite test 7.3320 and it traded in a 7.3350/7.3520 range. It closed largely unchanged at 7.3455 (-0.02%). Momentum indicators are turning flat, suggesting further range trading today, probably in a range of 7.3380/7.3580.”
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “We have held the view that ‘there is room for USD to retest the 7.3700’ since early last week. Yesterday (14 Jan, spot at 7.3410), we noted that ‘upward momentum is beginning to fade, and a breach of 7.3250 (‘strong support’ level) would suggest that 7.3700 is not coming into view.’ We continue to hold the same view.”
