Tech Focus: CEEMEA FX Price Signal Summary: USD TRY Bearish Extension

EMERGING MARKETS
  • Recent gains in EURHUF are still considered a correction. The technical condition remains bearish and the downtrend that started Dec 31 is intact. The recent breach of 356.32, Jan 25 low opens 353.15 next, a major support and Dec 14 low.
    • Key resistance remains 361.14, Jan 27 high where a break is required to alter the picture.
  • EURPLN is marginally weaker. The pair last week failed to deliver a clear break of support at 4.4731, Feb 3 low. A breach of 4.5074/89, the 50-day EMA and Feb 12 high would signal scope for a stronger recovery. Key resistance is 4.5618, Jan 28 high. The recent low has been 4.4709, Feb 10. A break would resume bearish pressure.
  • USDZAR maintains a weaker tone. The pair has cleared 14.5037, Dec 25 low and the bear trigger. This confirms a resumption of the broader downtrend that started in Apr 2020 and paves the way for a move towards 14.0633, 1.236 projection of the Apr - Jun - Aug 2020 price swing
    • Resistance is at 14.7667, Jan 21 low.
  • USDTRY bearish conditions continue to dominate and the downtrend is extending once again today.
    • The pair has cleared 7.00 to maintain the bearish sequence of lower lows and lower highs.
    • This has opened 6.8568, the 50.0% retracement of the Nov 2018 - Nov 2020 uptrend.
    • The 20-day EMA at 7.1836 marks a firm resistance.
