USD/CNH: A downward bias towards 7.0500 – UOB Group

Source Fxstreet

The US Dollar (USD) is likely to trade with a downward bias towards 7.0500, UOB Group FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann note.

USD to trade towards 7.0500

24-HOUR VIEW: “Our view for USD to trade in a 7.0850/7.1150 range was incorrect, as it rose to 7.1133 and then plummeted to 7.0601. While the sharp drop appears to be running ahead of itself, there is scope for USD to break below 7.0600 today. The next support 7.0500 is unlikely to come into view. Resistance levels are at 7.0800 and 7.0970.”

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “On Tuesday (17 Sep, spot at 7.1005), we indicated that USD ‘is likely to trade in a sideways range of 7.0700/7.1300.’ Yesterday, USD fell and broke below 7.0700, reaching a low of 7.0601. Downward momentum has increased, albeit not much. From here, provided that USD remain 7.1100, we expect USD to trade with a downward bias towards 7.0500.”
