USD/CNH: Likely to trade sideways between 7.0650 and 7.1350 – UOB Group

Source Fxstreet

For the time being, the US Dollar (USD) is likely to trade sideways between 7.0650 and 7.1350, UOB Group FX strategists Quek Ser Leang and Alvin Liew note.

Rangebound between 7.0650 and 7.1350

24-HOUR VIEW: “USD traded in a range of 7.0738/7.1001 last Friday, closing little changed at 7.0969 (+0.09%). It traded on a firm note in early Asian trade today, but while it could edge higher, we view any advance as part of a higher trading range of 7.0850/7.1150. In other words, USD is unlikely to break clearly either below 7.0850 or above 7.1150.”

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “The current price movements are likely part of a sideways trading phase. For the time being, we expect USD to trade between 7.0650 and 7.1350. Looking ahead, USD has to break clearly below 7.0650 or above 7.1350 before a sustained move can be expected.”
