Furthermore, price has also traded below the 50-day EMA and attention turns to 20.0975, the 76.4% retracement. Firm short-term resistance is seen at 20.5975, Oct 15 high.

  • USDCLP maintains a bull tone. The move to fresh trend highs last week reinforced bullish conditions and confirmed an extension of the price sequence of higher highs and higher lows.
