USD/IDR Tests Best Levels Of The Week, RSI Moves Above 30

IDR

Spot USD/IDR tested the upper bound of its weekly range, with the RSI moving above the 30 level, sending a bullish signal. The rate last sits +25 pips at IDR13,920.

  • USD/IDR peeked below key support Jun 8, 2020 low of IDR13,873 at the start to the week, but failed to extend losses/consolidate below that level and has established itself just above there.
  • Should bulls manage to force a break above IDR13,925, the best level of this week/year, their focus would move to Dec 30, 2020 low of IDR14,050. On the flip side, losses past Jun 8, 2020/Jan 4 lows of IDR13,873/13,865 would clear the way to the lower 3.0% Bollinger band at IDR13,800.
  • Indonesian FinMin Indrawati said Wednesday that budget deficit was at IDR956.3tn or 6.09% of GDP in 2020. This was less than the gov't's estimate of 6.34% of GDP, but also the highest debt/GPD ratio since 2004.
  • Danareksa Consumer Confidence is due for release at some point this week.
