KRW: Bears Still In Control, Fibo Support Gets Tested

CNH

CNH/KRW has been in a downtrend since charting a bearish Harami candlestick pattern on Mar 10/11, when the RSI crossed below the 70 threshold. Support from the 50-DMA gave way earlier this week, and the rate descended onto the 38.2% retracement of the Dec 7 - Mar 10 rally today.

  • The pair last sits at KRW171.86, 40 pips lower on the day. A clean break below the aforementioned 38.2% Fibo level at KRW171.79 would give bears a green light for targeting Feb 22 low of KRW171.04. Bulls look for a bounce above the 50-DMA at Y172.69, which would shift focus to the KRW174.00 mark, which capped gains in the second half of Mar.
