Highlights

USD/UZS trades below key moving averages with intraday weakness and a 67% probability of further declines to UZS11,893 to UZS12,012 in the next few sessions.

Regulatory overhaul introduces uncertainty as long-term flows reassessed

Uzbekistan has announced forthcoming changes to customs fees, pension service structures, LPG supply regulations, public security procedures, business prepayments, and mobile advertising rules, effective November 1, 2026, according to Uzdaily. While these regulatory adjustments are still over a year away, they may alter transaction costs and operational frameworks, prompting market participants to reassess long-term supply and demand dynamics for the US Dollar vs Uzbekistani Som. The scope and breadth of these policy changes add a layer of uncertainty to future capital flows and commercial activity, although the immediate market impact remains muted.

Technical indecision as pair faces resistance and mixed momentum

On the technical front, USD/UZS is positioned below the MA-20 at UZS12,009 and MA-50 at UZS12,023 on the hourly chart, as well as beneath the daily MA-200 at UZS11,988. The Ichimoku Kijun stands at UZS11,997, acting as the nearest resistance. Momentum indicators present a mixed picture: while MACD signals a potential rebound, ADX and CCI are neutral, Bull/Bear Power highlights an oversold state, and RSI prints 48.15 (Sell). Stochastic RSI is neutral, and the Awesome Oscillator offers no clear direction, contributing to indecision at current levels.

Range-bound outlook as muted volatility contains bearish bias

For the short term, USD/UZS is expected to trade within the UZS11,893 to UZS12,012 range, with a 67% probability favoring a downward move. The base scenario anticipates ranging price action bounded by support and resistance. A decisive break above UZS11,997 could trigger a bullish scenario, while a move below the lower band near UZS11,893 would reinforce the bearish outlook. Typical volatility is likely to remain subdued unless a fresh catalyst emerges.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees USD/UZS consolidating below key moving averages amid subdued momentum. He believes upcoming regulatory changes in Uzbekistan add a fundamental layer of uncertainty for the medium term but notes that short-term sentiment remains neutral as immediate catalysts are lacking. Technical signals do not suggest a clear bias, with price action confined within familiar support and resistance. "Unless UZS11,997 is reclaimed, I remain cautious and expect ranging conditions to persist."

Earlier, analysts noted that US Dollar vs Uzbekistani Som was exhibiting bearish momentum, with technicals suggesting a risk of further downside. The latest regulatory developments and persistent range-bound trading add policy-driven uncertainty to the outlook, making a break above UZS11,997 a key level for any shift toward recovery.
