USD/SGD fell further this morning, taking cues from a softer USD and another round of gains in RMB, JPY, OCBC FX strategists Frances Cheung and Christopher Wong note.
“We cautioned that the sharp move lower in USD/RMB did not see follow-through via policymakers’ daily USD/CNY fixing. As such, the RMB momentum may not be sustained intra-day.”
“Pair was last seen at 1.3201 levels. Daily momentum is bearish but RSI is in oversold conditions. Cautious of rebound risks. Resistance at 1.33 (23.6% fibo), 1.3390 (38.2% fibo retracement of Oct high to Jan low) and 1.3460 (200 DMA, 50% fibo).”
“S$NEER was estimated at ~1.78% above our model-implied mid, but has started to ease away from its upper bound.”
