Highlights

  • The Reserve Bank of India imposed a 20% cash reserve requirement on large foreign exchange derivative positions involving the rupee to curb speculative activity.
  • Restrictions on rebooking cancelled rupee contracts now limit leverage, with authorities signaling potential further interventions to maintain rupee market stability.
  • EUR/INR shows short- and medium-term bullish momentum with a projected 2 to 3 day range of ₹105.9926 to ₹107.32 and a 67% probability of further gains.

Higher cash buffer and contract limits restrain rupee leverage

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) recently imposed a 20% cash reserve requirement on large foreign exchange derivative positions involving the rupee, directly increasing the cost of heavy rupee exposures for market participants and curbing speculative activity, according to Bloomberg. The RBI also restricted the rebooking of cancelled rupee contracts, constraining leverage and limiting the ability to reset trading positions, which provides short-term stabilization for the rupee market. Further, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra signaled openness to additional interventions to maintain orderly trading, contributing to market expectations of ongoing regulatory support for rupee stability.

Short-term upside momentum as long-term resistance caps rally

From a technical standpoint, EUR/INR is trading above its MA-20 and MA-50, while remaining below the MA-200, indicating that short- and medium-term upward momentum remains intact while long-term resistance persists overhead. The Ichimoku Kijun sits at ₹106.2968 and is currently acting as immediate support. Bull/Bear Power shows strong buyer dominance on an intraday basis. RSI stands at 52.46 and signals 'Buy,' with MACD and ADX both confirming the presence of upward momentum. Oscillators such as the Stoch RSI and CCI are neutral, reflecting some divergence in signals and contributing to a mixed technical backdrop.

Consolidation outlook as breakout odds favor bullish move

In the coming 2–3 trading days, EUR/INR is expected to consolidate within a typical volatility band ranging from ₹105.9926 to ₹107.32. The baseline scenario is for further sideways movement between these levels. There is a 67% probability of an upward breakout, should the price decisively move above resistance, while a downside move would be signaled by a break below immediate support at the Kijun level.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, highlights that the Reserve Bank of India's decisive actions are reinforcing rupee stability and limiting excessive speculation. He sees a constructive outlook for EUR/INR in the short term, given positive technical momentum and confidence from ongoing regulatory support. Medium-term resistance is still a hurdle, but buyer dominance is visible for now. 'With the RBI firmly managing the market and strong technical signals, I see EUR/INR holding near ₹106.65 and an upward breakout remaining likely if resistance gives way,' he says.

Previously it was reported that EUR/INR faced persistent downside pressure, with bearish technical indicators and regulatory interventions by the Reserve Bank of India reinforcing a cautious outlook. The current analysis signals a shift toward short- and medium-term upward momentum, making the immediate action point for traders to monitor for a decisive move above long-term resistance that could open the door for a sustained breakout.
