USD/TRY Holds its Tight 8.50-8.60 Range W/W, Despite Cyprus Concerns

TURKEY
  • USD/TRY trades a fraction higher at the open, tracking early upside in the BBDXY.
  • Buyers re-entered the cross around 8.55 yesterday, but failed to push price action back above the 50dma at 8.5842.
  • W/w the cross has remained mostly rangebound and slightly firmer (+0.45%) amid fluctuating risk sentiment – occupying the 8.50-8.60 range.
  • With limited data on the agenda for today, and Eid celebrations still underway the cross will likely be driven by broad global risk sentiment and USD-side factors.
  • US PMI's are the key data point on the agenda. Intraday Sup1: 8.5419, Sup2: 8.5042, Res1: 8.5808, Res2: 8.6064
