USDMXN Extends Post-Election Bounce to 7%

MXN
  • USDMXN (+2.20%) is trading sharply higher again today, as the pair extends the post-election surge, picking up momentum through the 18.00 handle to print as high as 18.1936.
  • The strong rally cancels a recent bearish theme and has resulted in price trading through 17.8159, the 76.4% of the Apr 19 - May 21 downleg. This break reinforces bullish conditions and has seen spot significantly narrow the gap to 18.2137, the Apr 19 high.
  • Further strength would immediately bring the October 2023 highs into focus at 18.4863.
  • As previously noted, market anxieties concerning the Morena supermajorities remain front and centre, and positioning dynamics are emphasising how the short-term path of least resistance remains higher for USDMXN.
