*SUP 4: Sgd1.3399 - Low Sept 20
*COMMENTARY: The failure to produce a break above Sgd1.3659 left the pair
looking heavy as it flirts with the 55-DMA (Sgd1.3560). Bears continue to look
for a close below the 200-WMA to add weight to their case for a move back to
2017 lows with below Sgd1.3484 to confirm. Bulls still need a close above the
21-DMA to gain breathing room and shift focus back to layers of resistance
Sgd1.3659-1.3720.

dramatic sell-off to fresh 2017 and 14mth lows Friday although follow through is
a little lacking courtesy of the Bollinger base (Krw1096.2). Layers of
resistance remain with the Krw1110.5 level key this week. Bull need a close

to fresh 2017 and 13mth lows with bears currently focused on the Myr4.0900
support. O/S daily studies and the Bollinger base (Myr4.1478) remain key
concerns for bears. Bulls still need a close above Myr4.1730 to ease immediate
bearish pressure and above Myr4.2050 to shift immediate focus back to the
55-DMA.

with bears currently focused on the 200-DMA. Daily studies at O/S levels and

bears with potential to limit follow through. In saying that, bulls still need a
