Highlights

USD/PLN is trading above key short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages, confirming a strong upward trend across timeframes.
Momentum indicators remain broadly positive with several overbought signals, including the RSI and Stochastic RSI both registering strong buy conditions.
The pair is expected to trade between zł3.8891 and zł3.9299 in the next five sessions, with over 80% probability of a move higher and less than 20% chance of a decline.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that despite USD/PLN's strong technical posture, the recent intraday selling highlights vulnerability near current highs. He remains skeptical due to the overbought RSI and clear bearish divergence in price action, even as buyers dominate by bull/bear metrics. Kharitonov underscores the absence of supportive news or fundamentals, which increases the risk of a pullback. He cautions that intraday bearish tone against a backdrop of robust momentum is often a red flag for late buyers. "I see the current levels as exposed to a technical correction if downside momentum accelerates below zł3.8891."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees the bullish trend in USD/PLN as firmly supported by the technical structure. He views the elevated RSI and strong momentum indicators as confirmation that upside potential is not yet exhausted. Karapetjanc emphasizes that the ongoing uptrend offers attractive opportunities for trend-following strategies and expects further gains above zł3.9299. "The technical outlook signals further growth is likely, and the market still offers multiple setups for buyers."

Jainam Mehta, market strategist, notes the persistent bullish momentum but draws attention to overbought signals on both the RSI and CCI. He believes risk management is key as the pair tests resistance near zł3.9299, with potential for a tactical fade if momentum stalls. Mehta highlights that the sideways baseline scenario may allow for short-term range trades around current levels. "A potential breakout or sharp reversal could present a contrarian opportunity within the next few sessions."

Bullish momentum persists as technicals clash with overbought signals

USD/PLN is trading above the 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages at zł3.8703, zł3.7853, and zł3.7162, respectively, reinforcing bullish pressure in the short, medium, and long term. The near-term ceiling stands at zł3.9299, while the immediate floor is at zł3.9068, with Ichimoku Kijun (zł3.8294) confirming trend support well below the current level. Momentum signals are broadly positive, with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Average Directional Index (ADX) both indicating a "Buy" setup. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains elevated at 71.08, pointing to overbought conditions, with the Stochastic RSI signaling "Strong Buy." The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) also warns of an overbought market, while Bull/Bear Power (BBP) at 0.0396 confirms buyers dominate intraday action. The pair is down zł0.0215 or 0.55%, opening nearly flat and trading near the daily low, with intraday volatility at 0.65%. Intraday tone shows some pressure after the open, slightly at odds with the robust momentum backdrop, and the Awesome Oscillator is neutral.

Earlier, analysts noted that USD/PLN had shifted to a more neutral-to-bearish outlook, with downside risks remaining in focus. The latest technical setup now highlights renewed bullish momentum amid overbought signals, making a breakout above zł3.9299 the decisive level to monitor for potential upside in the days ahead.
