Key Quotes
24-hour view: Yesterday, USD dropped to a low of 146.65, rebounded to 147.90, and then ended the day at 147.24 (-0.16%). While downward momentum has slowed somewhat, there is scope for USD to dip to 146.50 before a more sustained recovery is likely. Today, the major support at 146.00 is unlikely to come into view. Resistance is at 147.50, followed by 147.90.
Next 1-3 weeks: USD dropped to a low of 146.65 yesterday, its lowest level since mid-September. Downward momentum is building rapidly, and USD is likely to continue to weaken. The levels to watch are 146.50 and 146.00. To keep the momentum going, USD must stay below 148.40 (‘strong resistance’ level).
