Highlights

USD/COP is trading at $3,650.61, below the MA-20 ($3,659.45), MA-50 ($3,698.23), and MA-200 ($3,853.18), signaling sustained downside momentum.
Bearish momentum dominates as D1 and W1 MACD show strong selling pressure; RSI values are below 50 and trending downward, reinforcing negative sentiment.
Immediate support sits at $3,648.89 (Ichimoku Kijun), resistance at $3,659 (MA-20), with a downside price target of $3,560–$3,590 in the next five sessions.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees USD/COP firmly locked in a downtrend. He points to the clear breach below the MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200 as evidence of weak momentum. Bearish signals dominate across all technical indicators, but Kharitonov notes the lack of supportive news amplifies doubts among buyers. Further declines appear likely unless key support holds. "Given the sustained bearish momentum and absence of bullish catalysts, I would treat any rebound as corrective and favor defensive positioning," he says.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, views the situation as an opportunity despite recent downside. He believes macro drivers can quickly shift risk sentiment in favor of USD/COP. Temporary stabilization above $3,560 could offer strategic setups for buyers once resistance levels are reclaimed. Karapetjanc remains confident that the market offers avenues for renewed strength. "The short-term trend is weak, but bullish structure can re-emerge fast — I expect setups to appear for proactive traders," he states.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, highlights the oversold nature of intraday indicators and the presence of active buyers on dips. He notes that momentum remains skewed downward, but volatility near support could spark reactive bounces. Turakhiya sees value in monitoring lower boundaries for tactical entries with close stops. "Choppy action near $3,648 may give quick-win setups for nimble traders — just keep risk tight given the dominant downtrend," he advises.

Bearish momentum persists amid weak trend strength and mixed intraday signals

Momentum remains clearly bearish, with the MACD on both D1 and W1 signaling strong selling pressure and the ADX at D1 showing weak trend strength. Daily and weekly RSI readings are below 50 and point downward, with additional oversold pressures reflected by Stoch RSI and CCI on intraday timeframes. BBP suggests intraday buyers are still active, but the overall bias stays negative. The market slipped 0.53% today with no significant gap at the open, and the current price is near the lower end of today’s range, indicating moderate volatility and persistent pressure after the session began. Divergences between some momentum oscillators and intraday BBP indicate mixed participation, yet daily and weekly momentum overwhelmingly confirm the downward move.

Last time, analysts noted that USD/COP traded below its key moving averages amid prevailing bearish momentum, with the MACD signaling strong selling pressure and the RSI hovering near neutral levels. Support was identified at the Ichimoku Kijun line, while resistance remained at the 50-day moving average, as mixed oscillators and muted trend strength pointed to ongoing consolidation and market uncertainty.
