Yield-driven inflows as US Treasury buyback boosts dollar appeal

The US Treasury has announced plans to buy back up to $6 billion of longer-term US government debt, a size roughly three times greater than routine operations. According to Fxstreet, this move led to a rise in US Treasury yields, making US fixed-income assets relatively more attractive to global investors. As higher yields support greater demand for the US Dollar, the backdrop provided a fundamental tailwind for USD/THB's standing in the foreign exchange market.

Uptrend strength maintained as indicators signal sustained buying pressure

On the technical front, USD/THB remains above the MA-20 at ฿32.9571, the MA-50 at ฿32.9185, and the long-term MA-200 at ฿32.5429. The immediate support is provided by the Ichimoku Kijun level at ฿32.9942, with resistance near the recent highs. MACD and ADX are both on buy signals, underlining strong trend momentum. RSI sits at 69.0892, in the buy zone but approaching overbought territory. Both Stoch RSI and CCI are overbought, reflecting heightened buying pressure, while Bull/Bear Power indicates intraday dominance by buyers. The Awesome Oscillator supports this upward momentum. Price is near today's high, and volatility remains low, with intraday indicators aligned in favor of buyers.

Sideways movement expected as resistance and support define near-term range

Over the next 2-3 trading days, USD/THB is expected to consolidate within the ฿32.913 to ฿33.2438 range, consistent with typical volatility for the pair. The baseline scenario envisions ongoing sideways movement within this corridor. Should upside pressure continue, a move above resistance could confirm the prevailing uptrend. Conversely, a break below the Kijun support at ฿32.9942 would open the way for short-term weakness.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees renewed confidence in USD/THB supported by strong macro fundamentals. The US Treasury’s expanded buyback is a clear signal, attracting flows into US assets and reinforcing the dollar’s appeal. Technicals remain bullish as momentum and key averages align with the news-driven strength. Karapetjanc believes price consolidation is likely, but upside risks are intact. "If this macro backdrop holds, I expect USD/THB to maintain strength and potentially test higher resistance levels soon."

Earlier, analysts noted that USD/THB was caught between weak momentum signals and persistent resistance, leading to cautious short-term trading. The latest technical and fundamental developments now reinforce the near-term consolidation scenario, making a break above current resistance a key trigger for any further upside move.
