CNH: USD/CNH Closing In On 20-day EMA Resistance

CNH

USD/CNH is tracking higher, the pair last near 7.0500. Broader USD gains are weighing on the pair, with BBDXY index continuing to tick higher. The pull back in China equity related sentiment is another headwind, with sharp losses in HK and China property names.  

  • Levels wise for USD/CNH we aren't too far away from the 20-day EMA (7.0576), while beyond that the Sep 24 high in the pair was at 7.0694. lows on Monday were at 6.9735.
  • With China markets closed until next Tuesday there will be no onshore spot update until then (last close at 7.0187).
  • Sentiment will be dictated by HK/China related equity swings in interim, along with broader USD trends in the lead up to tomorrow night's US NFP print.
