As the greenback ran into renewed selling interest at 111.46 and has dropped sharply, retaining our bearishness for the decline from 112.20 top to resume after consolidation, below 110.27 (this week’s low) would confirm and extend the fall from 112.20 to last week’s low at 110.11. Looking ahead, break there is needed to retain downside bias and confirm medium term decline has resumed for further subsequent fall to 109.80-85 (1.618 times projection of 112.20-111.12 measuring from 111.59) which is likely to hold on first testing.
In view of this, would not chase this fall here and would be prudent to sell dollar on recovery as 111.00-10 should limit upside. Only above 111.46 resistance would abort and prolong choppy trading, risk rebound to 111.59, then towards 111.90-00 later but price should falter well below said resistance at 112.20.
