Koruna On Back Foot, Holds Familiar Range

CZK

EUR/CZK trades +0.023 at 24.706, holding a familiar range just under the ascending 200-DMA. Price action has stabilised over the past week or so, but the short-term downtrend originating at the pair's YtD highs remains intact. The recent stabilisation has allowed EUR/CZK to unwind oversold conditions, with the RSI back above the 30 threshold. The 50-DMA is currently flirting with the 100-DMA and a potential crossover would support the bearish case. The next technical target on the downside is 24.458, the low print of Jan 8. Conversely, a break above the 200-DMA (24.783) would open up the 50-/100-DMAs (25.100/25.101).

  • CZGBs trade mixed across the curve, with the 5-10 segment underperforming. The PX Index consolidates losses from the previous trading day.
  • Czech parliament will start debating a controversial overhaul of the pension system this afternoon, which include an increase in the retirement age.
