Highlights

USD/UZS trades above short- and medium-term moving averages but remains just below the key long-term resistance at UZS12,000.
Most momentum indicators register overbought signals, with buyers dominating intraday action and price holding near the high of its daily range.
Expected five-day range is UZS11,921 to UZS12,061, with a 62% probability of an upward move and consolidation favored unless UZS12,000 is breached.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees the USD/UZS pair showing only modest strength, despite bullish technical indicators. He notes the absence of any supporting macro news and considers current momentum driven purely by technicals and short-term buyers. Kharitonov warns that the longer-term trend remains questionable due to the price staying below the MA-200, and points out the overbought oscillator readings as a sign of possible exhaustion. He sees divergence in signals, with indicators like HMA signaling caution. "Even with recent gains, the upside looks vulnerable — I would not chase this move blindly," he says.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, highlights the dominant bullish structure in USD/UZS. He notes the sustained buying pressure and strength above the key moving averages, viewing this as an opportunity for further upside moves. Karapetjanc points to the solid momentum and overbought readings as confirmation of continued demand. The analyst believes the UZS12,000 breakout could open the door for extended gains. "The market offers multiple setups here, and I expect further growth if bullish momentum persists," he states.

Sholanke Dele, market strategist, notes that the rally in USD/UZS lacks fundamental catalysts and is driven mainly by technical flows. He sees the overbought momentum readings as a warning for traders to temper expectations. Dele remains cautious, given the modest price change and flat opening. "Without real news or broader support, this bullish streak could quickly reverse," he warns.

Technical boundaries mixed as oscillators show bullish but overbought signals

USD/UZS is currently trading above both the MA-20 (UZS11,825) and MA-50 (UZS11,809), but remains just below the MA-200 (UZS12,000), indicating short- and medium-term bullish pressure, with a longer-term bearish alignment from MA-50 vs MA-200. The near-term ceiling for the pair stands at UZS12,000, with immediate support at UZS11,972. Confirming the prevailing trend, Ichimoku Kijun (UZS11,843) and the lower moving averages remain well below the current price. Momentum readings show a firm bias, with Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signaling buy and Average Directional Index (ADX) reading as neutral. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is elevated at 66.56 and both Stochastic RSI and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) are in overbought territory. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) indicates buyers dominate intraday momentum and confirms an overbought reading. The Awesome Oscillator (AO) also supports the bullish trend. The pair is up UZS64.84 or 0.54% and opened nearly flat. Price is trading near the high of its daily range, with intraday volatility at 0.83% and showing a tone of strength toward the highs. Although most oscillators support continued buying, HMA stands in contrast with a strong sell, creating moderate divergence in short-term signals.

Earlier, analysts noted that USD/UZS maintained a short- and medium-term bullish bias, with momentum indicators favoring further upside. The latest analysis reinforces this view, highlighting that a sustained break above UZS12,000 would offer the clearest signal for a bullish continuation in the days ahead.
