USD is likely to trade in a range
24-HOUR VIEW: "We expected USD to 'edge higher to 157.15' yesterday. We pointed out that 'based on the current momentum, any further advance is unlikely to reach 157.50'. Our expectations did not materialise as USD traded in a relatively quiet manner between 156.28 and 156.80, closing largely unchanged (156.76, +0.09%). The price action provides no fresh clues and today, we expect USD to range-trade, most likely between 156.30 and 157.05."
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "Our most recent narrative was from two days ago (06 Jan, spot at 156.70), in which we highlighted that USD 'is likely to trade in range for now, most likely between 155.60 and 157.50'. We continue to hold the same view for now."
