Key Quotes
24-hour view: “Our expectations for USD to ‘trade sideways’ were incorrect as it soared to 123.66 before extending its gains during early Asian hours. The rapid build-up in momentum is likely to lead to further USD strength to 124.30. The next resistance at 124.60 is not expected to come into the picture. Support is at 123.55 followed by 123.15.”
Next 1-3 weeks: “We have expected USD to consolidate and trade within a range of 121.00/124.00 since late last week. After trading in relatively quiet manner for a few days, USD soared to a high of 123.66 yesterday before extending its gains during Asian hours. Upward momentum is building and USD is likely to trade with an upward bias towards 124.30, possibly 124.60. Looking ahead, USD has to close above 124.60 before a move to last month’s high at 125.10 can be expected. On the downside, a breach of 121.00 (‘strong support’ level) would indicate that the build-up in momentum has fizzled out.”
