Downside momentum intensifies as oversold signals persist below resistance
The pair trades below the MA-20 and MA-50, highlighting short- and medium-term resistance, but remains above the MA-200, which continues to provide long-term support. The nearest resistance is identified at the Ichimoku Kijun, set at ฿33.1635. Momentum remains negative, as MACD and ADX both indicate continued downside pressure. RSI is significantly oversold at 23.94, with CCI and Stochastic RSI also reflecting oversold conditions.

Range-bound outlook prevails as breakout risks remain subdued
In the near term (2–3 trading days), USD/THB is expected to fluctuate between ฿32.8273 and ฿33.1573, staying within a typical volatility band relative to current levels. There is a 22% probability of an upward move, with a 78% likelihood of the pair drifting lower towards support. The most likely scenario is continued range-bound trading unless a decisive breakout above the Kijun or a breakdown through the forecasted support level occurs.
Earlier, analysts noted that USD/THB was likely to consolidate within a sideways range as breakout risks built on both sides. The current analysis strengthens this view with increasingly bearish technical signals, suggesting traders should closely monitor for any breakdown below the key support level, which could signal a new phase of downside momentum.
