Spot USD/PHP oscillates around neutral levels, last sits +0.032 at PHP54.105. Topside focus falls on PHP54.435, which capped gains on Oct 4, 2018. Bears look for a retreat past the nearest round figures.
- USD/PHP 1-month NDF last -0.050 at PHP54.220. Bears look for a dip through Jun 15 low of PHP53.330, while bulls keep an eye on yesterday's high of PHP54.270, followed by Oct 4, 2018 high of PHP54.800.
