Highlights

USD/COP is trading at 3,709.83, remaining above MA-20 (3,675.16) and MA-50 (3,677.89), indicating short- to medium-term bullish bias but still below the MA-200 (3,821.76).
Momentum signals are mixed: while MACD D1 is in buy territory, weak ADX and multiple oscillators suggest overbought and uncertainty about sustained upward movement.
Weekly probability of a price increase is below 20%, with USD/COP likely to trade sideways between 3,686.03–3,686.31; key support at 3,655 and resistance around 3,720.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees the USD/COP trading above short-term moving averages but still far below the long-term MA-200 level. He notes persistent technical uncertainties and highlights that most momentum signals are conflicted or weak. The absence of fundamental news further weakens the bullish case and leaves the pair exposed to potential downside. Kharitonov is cautious about the extended overbought readings and questioning sustainability of the current momentum. "With no supporting news and mixed signals, I believe traders should be on guard for a reversal or range-bound action near resistance."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes the bullish structure remains intact above key averages, with sentiment holding firm despite lacking recent news catalysts. He sees current price action maintaining upward momentum as the market tests resistance bands. Karapetjanc is confident that even sideways movements offer setups for proactive traders if the 3,700–3,720 zone can be breached. "Further growth is feasible if buyers sustain pressure above 3,700 — the market still offers interesting opportunities this week."

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes mixed sentiment as oscillators show overbought signals but momentum lacks clear trend strength. He points out intraday volatility near the top of the range and notes that technical conditions may favor short-term reversal setups. Turakhiya highlights sideways trading as the most likely short-term scenario unless the pair decisively breaks above 3,720 or below 3,655. "With sentiment indecisive and volatility moderate, I see short-term range plays and quick reaction trades as the most promising setups now."

Mixed momentum and overbought signals elevate near-term uncertainty

Momentum signals are mixed: while the MACD D1 is still in buy territory, a low ADX D1 reflects the lack of a strong trend. Overbought conditions are indicated by several oscillators such as CCI and bbp, whereas Stoch RSI and intraday RSI D1 remain neutral to slightly bullish. The Awesome Oscillator also leans bullish. The pair is currently trading near today's high (range: 3,687.59 – 3,706.77), with moderate intraday volatility. This suggests persistent upward pressure, though divergent signals between momentum and oscillators highlight increased uncertainty about a sustained rally. Nearest dynamic support lies at the Ichimoku Kijun (3,655), with resistance at the MA-50 and at the psychological 3,700–3,720 band.

Previously it was reported that USD/COP is demonstrating short- and medium-term upward momentum as it trades above its 20- and 50-day moving averages, though it remains constrained by longer-term bearish dynamics below the 200-day average, with immediate support at the Ichimoku Kijun. Momentum indicators including the MACD and RSI show only mild bullishness, while overbought conditions and neutral trend strength suggest limited near-term upside and an increased risk of pullback within a narrow volatility band.
