USD/MYR Highest Level Since Mid March

MYR

USD/MYR prints at 4.4980/5020, the pair rose ~0.4% yesterday printing its highest level since 17 March.

  • MYR was pressured yesterday as concerns over the slowing global economy weighed. Palm Oil futures fell ~1% on Monday and are down a further ~1.3% today.
  • Bulls now target the high from Mar 9 at 4.5317. Bears first look to break the 20-Day EMA (4.4567) to turn the tide.
  • Looking ahead, Friday's April Trade Balance provides the only data of note this week. A surplus of MYR21.20bn is expected.
