Highlights

USD/COP trades at $3,674.67, positioned above the MA-20 ($3,662.39) but below the MA-50 ($3,710.74), indicating modest short-term upward momentum amid broader selling pressure.
Momentum indicators are mixed: the MACD is strongly bearish, RSI is mildly bullish, and overbought readings on Stochastic RSI and BBP highlight uncertain direction.
With the probability of a price increase below 20%, USD/COP is expected to consolidate between $3,696.11 and $3,697.11 over the next five sessions; a drop below Kijun ($3,652.52) would signal deeper losses.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees short-term momentum in USD/COP, but notes persistent seller pressure with the price failing to break above key moving averages. He highlights mixed technical signals, with strong bearish MACD and neutral momentum elsewhere. The lack of news adds to market uncertainty, and volatility levels offer little conviction for new positions. Kharitonov remains skeptical, pointing out the overbought conditions supported by Stochastic RSI and BBP. "With the probability of upside under 20%, I recommend traders avoid chasing longs while consolidation prevails in this narrow corridor."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, emphasizes opportunities despite current sideways action for USD/COP. He believes the structure retains bullish potential if resistance at the MA-50 is overcome. Although momentum is mixed, he sees the consolidation phase as a setup for future growth once volatility picks up. Karapetjanc remains confident about upside triggers that could emerge with renewed global risk appetite. "Traders should watch for a clear breakout above $3,710.74 — further growth is expected if that level is taken."

Mixed signals and consolidation as momentum indicators diverge

Momentum signals for USD/COP are mixed. The MACD is strongly bearish, and the ADX indicates a weak trend. The RSI is neutral to mildly bullish, while both the Stochastic RSI and BBP highlight overbought conditions; CCI remains supportive of buyers. The Awesome Oscillator does not confirm a clear direction. The pair slipped 0.58% ($21.45) on the day with no significant opening gap, trading in a mid-range between $3,686.00 and $3,705.35. Volatility has been moderate, and price action suggests consolidation rather than a decisive directional move, reflecting uncertainty amid diverging momentum indicators.

Last time, analysts noted that USD/COP remains under bearish pressure, trading below key moving averages with momentum signals such as MACD, RSI, and CCI supporting a continued sell bias despite a daily gain and a slight intraday uptick. Immediate support is found at the Ichimoku Kijun, while resistance levels are set at the MA-50 and around the 3,700 mark, and technical divergences point to ongoing choppy sentiment without a clear reversal.
