Rangebound between 7.2700 and 7.3100

24-HOUR VIEW: “USD continues to trade in a quiet manner yesterday, between 7.2885 and 7.2939. The traded range was narrower than our expected range of 7.2820/7.2950. The quiet price action provides no fresh clues. Today, we continue to expect USD to trade in a range between 7.2820 and 7.2950.”

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “Last Thursday (04 Jul, spot at 7.3000), we highlighted that the recent buildup of upward momentum had largely dissipated. We were of the view that the current price movements are likely part of a consolidation, and we expected USD to trade between 7.2700 and 7.3100 or the time being. There is no change in our view.”
