Dollar pressured by US Treasury’s debt surge and weaker sentiment

The US Treasury has announced plans to at least double its government debt purchases, according to Theguardian. The increased borrowing injects more supply into the Treasury market, which generally weighs on the US dollar through dilution effects and expectations of larger budget deficits. This shift in fiscal stance has contributed to recent weakness in the US Dollar vs Peruvian Sol, aligning with ongoing selling momentum.

Downside momentum persists as major averages and oscillators signal tension

On the technical front, USD/PEN remains below the MA-20 at S/3.362 and MA-50 at S/3.3675 on the hourly chart, as well as well under the MA-200 at S/3.408 on the daily timeframe. The nearby Ichimoku Kijun at S/3.3652 is currently acting as immediate resistance. Momentum indicators are subdued, with both MACD and ADX reflecting a negative bias. RSI shows selling pressure and sits in 'Sell' territory, CCI is oversold, and Stochastic RSI is neutral. Bull/Bear Power currently points to buyer activity, suggesting some emergent support, but the Awesome Oscillator remains aligned with sellers. There is evident tension between the persistent downside momentum and short-term exhaustion signals.

Bearish pattern likely as volatility band contains price direction

Over the next two to three trading days, USD/PEN is projected to move within a volatility band of S/3.3331 to S/3.3665. The probability of a near-term upward price scenario is low, at 22%, while the likelihood of further declines stands at 78%. The baseline view is continued sideways movement within this corridor, with S/3.3652 as resistance. Should price break above S/3.3652, a bullish case could negate the current downtrend, while a move below S/3.3331 would confirm further weakness and reinforce the recent bearish pattern.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees the recent US Treasury announcement as a direct catalyst for sustained downside in USD/PEN. Technical signals confirm prevailing bearish momentum, while short-term indicators show little shift in sentiment. He remains focused on confirmation at S/3.3331 and sees resistance at S/3.3652 as a potential turning point. "Base case remains range-bound and defensive — until resistance at S/3.3652 breaks, any rally is just a bounce within a downtrend."

Earlier, analysts noted that US Dollar vs Peruvian Sol had shifted from a sustained bearish trend to a more balanced, consolidation-focused outlook. The current technical and fundamental signals now reinforce a downside bias, making a sustained move below S/3.3331 the primary risk to watch for continued weakness.
