Highlights

USD/SGD is trading at S$1.2658, below its MA-20 (S$1.2724), MA-50 (S$1.2805), and MA-200 (S$1.2888), confirming bearish pressure across all time frames.
Momentum indicators remain negative, with strong sell signals from the MACD and ADX, and oversold conditions persist according to the Stochastic RSI.
Expect USD/SGD to consolidate between S$1.2630 and S$1.2735 next week, with less than a 20% probability of an upside move.

Sellers maintain control as momentum shows divergence and weak support

Momentum signals remain negative, with a strong sell on the MACD and a firm sell on the ADX, indicating sellers are in control. RSI and Commodity Channel Index readings are neutral to mildly oversold, while the Stochastic RSI is overbought, signaling a momentum divergence. Bull/Bear Power tips modestly toward buyers, though this is not supported broadly. The Ichimoku Kijun (S$1.2744) acts as immediate resistance, with no dynamic support level indicated below the current price, and USD/SGD trades near the low of today’s range, reflecting low volatility and continued pressure post-open.

Consolidation bias holds as downside risk outweighs rebound odds

In the short term, expect USD/SGD to stay within a volatility band of S$1.2630 to S$1.2735. With less than a 20% probability of a price rise, further declines remain more likely. The base scenario calls for consolidation near S$1.2660 – S$1.2735. A bullish reversal would require a clear move above S$1.2744, while a drop below S$1.2630 could open the way for additional downside.

Anton Kharitonov, Traders Union expert, sees the technical picture as clearly bearish for USD/SGD. Price remains under strong pressure below all key moving averages. Indicator signals confirm seller dominance, and upside probability looks weak. "I remain cautious — the downtrend is intact unless S$1.2744 is reclaimed as resistance."

Previously it was reported that USD/SGD remains under short- and medium-term pressure, trading below its 20- and 50-day moving averages yet holding above the 200-day moving average, with the Ichimoku Kijun and nearby resistance levels capping upside. Momentum indicators are mixed—MACD is bullish but trend strength is weak and RSI is slightly bearish—while price action is rangebound, with limited upside expected and support seen at the 200-day moving average.
