Price action continues to suggest further US Dollar (USD) weakness, even though it is too early to determine if the long-term support near 7.0980 is within reach, UOB Group FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann note.

USD pushes towards the 7.0980 support

24-HOUR VIEW: “We did not anticipate the sharp selloff in USD last Friday (we were expecting sideways trading). The decline is severely oversold, and while further weakness is not ruled, the support at 7.1100 is unlikely to come under threat. Resistance is at 7.1650; a breach of 7.1900 would mean that the weakness has stabilised.”
