Downside bias prevails amid narrow volatility and low rebound risk
Over the next 1 to 2 trading days, the expected price range for USD/HUF is Ft323.898 to Ft327.1532, reflecting typical volatility bands relative to current levels. There is a very high probability of further downside, with only a low likelihood of a rebound. The baseline outlook calls for a period of sideways consolidation within this range. If the pair breaks above the immediate resistance (Kijun), a bullish scenario could emerge, but a sustained move below projected support would reinforce bearish momentum.
Earlier, analysts noted that USD/HUF was maintaining a broadly bullish structure amid Hungary’s ongoing euro adoption efforts and supportive fiscal strategies. Current technical signals now indicate a shift toward sustained downside risk, with traders advised to monitor the Ft327.5495 Kijun resistance as a potential inflection point for short-term momentum.
