DOLLAR-SING TECHS: Below Sgd1.3448 Hints At Test of 2017 Low
*RES 4: Sgd1.3576 - Bollinger band top
*RES 3: Sgd1.3560 - 55-DMA
*RES 2: Sgd1.3536 - 200-WMA
*RES 1: Sgd1.3498 - 21-DMA
*PRICE: Sgd1.3470 @ 2300GMT
*SUP 1: Sgd1.3448 - Low Dec 5
*SUP 2: Sgd1.3415 - Low Dec 1
*SUP 3: Sgd1.3399 - Low Sept 20
*SUP 4: Sgd1.3356 - Daily Bear channel top
*COMMENTARY: Hesitation around the 200-WMA has seen a sell-off and close below
the 21-DMA that sees immediate pressure back on Sgd1.3448. Bears look for a
close below to reconfirm overall focus on tests of 2017 lows and below Sgd1.3399
needed to add weight to their case. Bulls now need a close above the 21-DMA to
ease bearish pressure and above the 55-DMA to end bearish hopes and shift focus
back to Sgd1.3659-1.3729 where the 200-DMA is noted.
DOLLAR-WON TECHS: Krw1088.0 Support Key Today
*RES 4: Krw1110.5 - Low Mar 28 now resistance
*RES 3: Krw1107.5 - High Nov 16
*RES 2: Krw1101.4 - High Nov 20
*RES 1: Krw1096.2 - High Dec 7
*PRICE: Krw1090.7 @ 2300GMT

*SUP 3: Krw1075.5 - 2017 Low Nov 29
*SUP 4: Krw1066.6 - 2015 Low Apr 29 2015
*COMMENTARY: The lack of follow through after recent 2017/2+ year lows now sees
the pair flirting with the 21-DMA (Krw1091.5). Bulls still need a close above
Krw1101.4 to confirm a break of the 21-DMA and shift focus to Krw1107.5-1110.5.
Bears now look for a close below Krw1088.0 to gain breathing room and below
Krw1080.3 to retain focus on 2015 lows and then the Krw1045.6 Oct monthly low
from 2014.
DOLLAR-MYR TECHS: Bears Need Close Below Myr4.0700
*RES 4: Myr4.1423 - High Nov 24

*SUP 3: Myr4.0370 - Monthly Low Sept 8 2016
*SUP 4: Myr4.0135 - Low Aug 26 2016
*COMMENTARY: Follow through was lacking on the recent 2017 lows with correcting
O/S daily studies providing the impetus for a correction. Initial resistance is
noted at Myr4.1014 with bulls needing a close above to ease bearish pressure and
hint at a correction back to Myr4.1311-1423 with the 21-DMA at Myr4.1116. While
Myr4.1014 caps bears remain focused on Myr3.9750-4.0315 where the Aug monthly
low is noted. Overall focus remains on the 200-WMA (Myr3.9230).

*COMMENTARY: Hesitation around 21 (Cnh6.6146) & 55 (Cnh6.6228) DMAs continues
and is a concern for bulls with the pair remaining capped around the 100-DMA.
Bulls still need a close above the 100-DMA to add support to the case for a move
back to the 200-DMA (Cnh6.7345) with above Cnh6.6904 needed to confirm. Bears
need a close below Cnh6.5926 to ease pressure on the 100-DMA and reconfirm focus
on Cnh6.5568-5674 with a close below to target Cnh6.5033.

*SUP 4: Php49.970 - Low June 20

a concern for bulls who look for a close above the 21-DMA to confirm focus on
Php50.810-51.034 where 100 & 55-DMAs are situated. Bears continue to look for a
close below Php50.240 to return pressure to the key Php49.970-50.140 support
region.

*SUP 4: Thb31.92 - Daily Bear channel base
*COMMENTARY: Fresh 2017 & 2+ year lows continue and add weight to the bearish
case with overall focus on tests of the bear channel base. O/S daily studies

above Thb32.77 to ease immediate bearish pressure and hint at a correction back
to Thb32.89-33.08 where 55 & 100-DMAs and LT bear channel top (Thb32.89) are
located.

*SUP 2: Idr13531 - 21-DMA
*SUP 3: Idr13527 - 55-DMA

confidence with the close above Idr13558 reconfirming focus on Idr13605-640
where 2017 highs are situated. Layers of support are noted Idr13527-557. The
55-DMA remains key support with bears now needing a close below to ease bullish
pressure and below Idr13490 to shift focus back to Idr13455.

and above the 55-DMA to shift focus to layers of resistance Inr65.1375-5425.
