Key Quotes
“While the strong 110.45 resistance capped the rebound in USD as expected, the subsequent down-move from the overnight high of 110.20 lacks momentum and the odds for a sustained down-move are not high. From here, as long as 110.20 is not taken out, USD is expected to drift lower to test 109.25/30 support”.
“There is no change to the current neutral view on USD. This pair is expected to trade choppily within a broad 108.80/110.60 range for the next one week or so. Looking further ahead, the current consolidation is likely a prelude for a stronger USD but 110.60 has to break before a sustained up-move can be expected”.
