HUNGARY
  • USDHUF has been retracing sharply lower in the past few days following Virag's comment on Monday on a potential earlier than expected rate hike; the pair is down 10 figures since Friday and currently trades slightly above its 285 support, next level to watch on the downside stands at 282 (June 2019 lows). On the topside, first resistance stands now at 290, followed by 295.
  • EURHUF continues to trend lower, breaking below its 350 support this morning; next level to watch on the downside stands at 348. On the topside, first resistance stands now at 355, followed by 360 (200D and 100D SMA).
  • HUFJPY has recently experienced a significant rally and is currently testing its ST resistance at 38.11, which represents its 50% Fibo retracement of the 31.79 - 44.44 range; a break above that level would open the door for a move up to 38.40. On the downside, first key support stands at 37. (scale *100).

  • GBPHUF has been trending lower in the past week, recently breaking below its 200D SMA at 406; next important support to watch on the downside stands at 400, which represents the 38.2% Fibo retracement of the 348 – 431 range (2019/2021 low high range) and the upward trending support line. On the topside, resistances to watch are 412 (23.6% Fibo) and 414 (100D SMA).
