Price Signal Summary - USDCLP Trend Structure Remains Bearish

LATAM FX
  • The USDMXN trend condition is unchanged and a bear cycle remains in play following the pullback from 17.3885, the Apr 25 high. Price continues to trade below the 20- and 50-day EMAs. A continuation lower would pave the way for a move towards the 16.50 handle and 16.2616, the Apr 9 low and a key support. For bulls, resistance at 17.3860, the Jan 17 high, has recently been tested. This level marks an important reversal trigger and a clear break of it, if seen, would be bullish and signal scope for a climb towards 17.6365, the 61.8% retracement of the Oct 6 - Apr 9 bear leg. Initial resistance is at 16.8242, the 50-day EMA.
  • The recent pullback in USDBRL, since Apr 16, appears to have been a correction. Note that support around the 50-day EMA, currently at 5.0922, has also been pierced. A clear breach of the average would strengthen a short-term bearish theme and signal scope for a deeper retracement - this would open 4.9984, the Apr 10 low. Key short-term resistance has been defined at 5.1969, the Apr 30 high. Clearance of this hurdle would be bullish.
  • The current bear cycle in USDCLP remains intact and recent bearish price action reinforces current conditions. The break in early May of support at 935.63, the Mar 15 low, marked an important technical breach and highlighted a stronger reversal. 886.96, the 76.4% retracement of the Dec 1 ‘23 - Feb 26 bull leg, has been pierced. A clear break of this level would open $870.45, the Dec 29 ‘23 low. Initial key short-term resistance has been defined at 919.76, the 20-day EMA. Short-term gains are considered corrective.
