Price Signal Summary: USDMXN Still Testing Support At Its 50-Day EMA

LATAM FX
  • USDMXN is firmer today but softer tone remains intact. The recent move lower is considered corrective although an extension appears likely short-term. Price has traded through the 20-day EMA and attention is on the 50-day EMA at 20.3349 that has been probed. A clear break of this latter EMA would signal scope for a deeper pullback and expose 20.1196, the Oct 26 low. Key resistance is at 20.9790, Nov 3 high. Initial resistance is at 20.6563, Nov 4 high.
  • USDBRL traded lower yesterday and has continued to move lower today. Next support is 5.4342, Oct 15 low. A break would open the base of a bull channel at 5.3489. The channel is drawn off the Jun 25 low and represents a key support parameter. While price remains inside the bull channel, the underlying trend condition remains bullish and the current bear cycle is considered corrective. Initial resistance is at 5.6068, Nov 5 high.
  • USDCLP traded lower yesterday and in the process, has cleared an important trendline support at 802.27, drawn from the May 10 low. The break has also established a short-term bearish price sequence of lower lows and lower highs, suggesting scope for a deeper retracement. The move lower has opened the 780.00 handle. Initial firm resistance is seen at 808.22, the 20-day EMA.
