Highlights

USD/THB trades at ฿31.2976, sitting below MA-20 and MA-50 and well under MA-200, signaling persistent short- and long-term bearish pressure.
Daily MACD, ADX, and oscillators (RSI 45.20, CCI –69.28) indicate weak bearish momentum and a lack of strong buy demand.
For the coming week, USD/THB is expected to range between ฿30.9254–฿31.2349, with a less than 20% probability of an upward breakout.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees persistent technical weakness in USD/THB, with the pair trading below all major moving averages and facing dynamic resistance at the Ichimoku Kijun. He notes that weak bearish momentum and low oscillator readings suggest sellers maintain control, but without clear exhaustion. Kharitonov is critical of the lack of supportive news flows, which he believes underlines the absence of positive catalysts for the pair. Volatility is likely to remain contained, pointing to sideways or lower trading unless key levels break. "Without fresh bullish drivers or a shift in sentiment, I see downside risks dominating for USD/THB in the short term."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, focuses on the broader setup for opportunity. He sees the current range as a constructive consolidation phase and highlights the upcoming test of resistance at ฿31.3249 as an important trigger for potential gains. Karapetjanc is confident that the market offers multiple setups despite the subdued momentum, arguing that further growth remains viable if buyers return. The absence of major news is viewed as a chance for technical rebalancing rather than a drawback. "I believe upside scenarios are still in play if the pair reclaims key resistance and momentum turns positive."

Mixed technical momentum limits upside near resistance cluster

The pair faces dynamic resistance near the Ichimoku Kijun at ฿31.3249, while support is likely around recent intraday lows. Technical momentum signals are broadly mixed: weak bearish momentum is indicated by the MACD and ADX on the daily chart, while the oscillators (RSI at 45.20, CCI at –69.28) indicate little buying interest but not yet clear oversold territory. Stoch RSI remains neutral, and BBP suggests sellers currently hold a modest advantage intraday, with the Awesome Oscillator reinforcing a slight downward trajectory.

Previously it was reported that USD/THB remains under sustained bearish momentum, trading below its key moving averages across all timeframes, with sustained selling pressure reinforced by resistance near the Ichimoku kijun and MA-50. Momentum indicators are mixed but generally weak, with oversold signals from RSI and Stoch RSI, while intraday flows and oscillators continue to support a downside bias.
