Highlights
- USD/CNY is trading at ¥6.8962, above the MA-20 but below MA-50 and MA-200, indicating mild short-term bullishness under medium- and long-term bearish pressure.
- Momentum indicators on the daily chart are broadly bearish, with MACD, ADX, and Awesome Oscillator signaling ongoing negative momentum, while RSI is deep in oversold territory at 24.89.

Heavy oversold readings persist as downside momentum dominates
Technically, the Ichimoku Kijun support level sits at ¥6.8906, just under the current price. Momentum indicators on the daily chart are bearish overall: the MACD and ADX both indicate negative momentum, with the RSI deep in oversold territory at 24.89 and the Commodity Channel Index also registering oversold. Bull/Bear Power is negative, confirming sellers are dominant intraday, while the Awesome Oscillator supports the current downward trend. Despite a small gap up at the open and movement near the upper end of today's range, short-term momentum is attempting a rebound, but daily and weekly setups remain decisively bearish.
Limited upside seen as bearish pressures shape five-day outlook
The expected price range for the next five trading days is ¥6.8671 to ¥6.9038, representing a typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of a further price increase is low (below 20%), suggesting downward movement is more likely given sustained bearish signals on daily and weekly timeframes. If the pair breaks above immediate resistance, a bullish scenario could see a gradual move back toward the MA-50 level. Alternatively, failure to hold immediate support may lead to further selling, pushing USD/CNY toward the lower end of the forecast range while sideways action remains the base-case expectation.
Last time, analysts noted that USD/CNY was trading below key moving averages, reflecting a persistent bearish trend with weak momentum and minimal volatility. Technical indicators, including oversold RSI and a bearish MACD, highlighted continued downside risk amid absent buy signals and limited support, suggesting further consolidation or possible declines if sellers maintain control.
