Malaysian Politics Draw Attention Again

MYR

Spot USD/MYR trades -10 pips at MYR4.1845, with local headline flow centred around political matters. Bears look to a swing past the 200-DMA/Jan 13 low at MYR4.1723/20, which would clear the way to Dec 31 low of MYR4.1642. Conversely, a rebound above Jan 19 high of MYR4.1960 would open up Jan 7 high of MYR4.2175.

  • Participants await the release of Malaysia's December trade data, due this coming Friday.
