LATAM FX: Price Signal Summary - USDMXN Support Remains Intact
LATAM FX
- USDMXN has found some support but remains below its recent highs. The latest move down is considered corrective and the next key support to watch lies at 19.0969, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would undermine a bullish theme and expose 18.5999, the Aug 16 low. For bulls, a resumption of gains would refocus attention on key resistance and the bull trigger at 20.2181, the Aug 5 high. Clearance of this level would confirm a resumption of the uptrend and open 20.7642, the 76.4% retracement of the bear leg between Nov ‘21 and Apr this year. Initial resistance is 19.5675, the Sep 13 high.
- The latest pullback in USDBRL resulted in a move through the 50-day EMA. It is still possible that the sell-off is a correction and the latest recovery reinforces this. However, the break of the average does signal scope for a deeper retracement. Attention is on the next key support at 5.3768, the Aug 19 low. Clearance of this support would strengthen a bearish threat and open 5.2405, the Jun 6 low. For bulls, a continuation higher would refocus attention on resistance at 5.6917, the Aug 30 high and a bull trigger.
- USDCLP has recently pulled back from its latest highs and this has resulted in a move below both the 20- and 50-day EMAs. The sell-off undermines the recent bullish theme and a continuation lower would expose support at 904.48, the Aug 26 low. For bulls, a reversal and a break of resistance at 951.80, the Sep 10 high, would reinstate a bullish theme.
