The spot rate approaches the upper limit of its medium-term bearish channel at 127.80 suggesting a decline. However, a break of this level will initiate a violent bullish channel.
Technical indicators provide sell signals and until the resistance is not broken the assumption of a decline is most likely. Bollinger bands have stabilized showing a more regular volatility.
The spot rate is currently testing the upper limit of its channel, we suggest 2 scenarios. The first one is the hypothesis of a decline where we recommend a sell on the level of 127.80 with the 1st objective at 127.20 and then at 127.00. A breakthrough of 128.00 will invalidate this scenario. The second scenario is a break of its resistance where we advise a “buy stop” which means to buy the spot rate as soon as it is broken through its resistance of 127.80 with the 1st objective at 128.40 and then at 128.60. A breakthrough of 127.60 will invalidate this scenario.
