24-hour view: “Our expectations for USD to ‘dip below 115.00’ yesterday did not materialize as it traded between 115.11 and 115.67 before closing largely unchanged at 115.28 (+0.07%). The underlying tone still appears to be on the soft side and we continue to see chance for USD to dip below 115.00. That said, a sustained decline below this level is unlikely. Resistance is at 115.45 followed by 115.65.”
