1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “Two days ago (05 Feb, spot at 7.2915), we indicated that ‘the outlook for USD is mixed after the volatile price movements over the past couple of days.’ We were of the view that USD ‘could trade in a broad range of 7.2430/7.3580. While the outlook remains mixed, the decreasing volatility over the past couple of days suggests USD could trade in a narrower range of 7.2500/7.3300.”
