1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “After USD surged last Friday, we indicated on Monday (07 Oct, spot at 7.0900) that ‘while further USD strength is not ruled out, it remains to be seen if it can maintain the rapid pace of advance.’ We also indicated that ‘the level to monitor is 7.1200, and in order to maintain the rapid buildup of momentum, USD must not break below 7.0500.’ Yesterday (Tuesday), USD broke below 7.0500 as it dropped to a low of 7.0466. The buildup in momentum has faded. The current price movements are likely part of a range trading phase. For the time being, USD is expected to trade between 7.0300 and 7.1200.”
