Highlights

USD/COP shows sustained bullish short- and medium-term momentum but faces strong resistance near the 3,808.81 threshold.
Technical indicators indicate a weak trend with several overbought signals, suggesting upside momentum is overstretched.
Market is expected to consolidate between 3,767.34 and 3,772.63 over the coming week, with a downward bias prevailing.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes the current bullish structure as USD/COP stays above short- and medium-term moving averages. He points out the lack of positive news drivers, leaving the recent momentum vulnerable. Overbought signals from multiple indicators, along with a weak trend reading, suggest the rally could easily reverse. Kharitonov sees little conviction among buyers and believes upcoming sessions risk a pullback below 3,730 if pressure builds. "The recent gains look fragile without clear macro or sentiment support — traders should be wary of chasing further upside at these levels."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, views the current setup as a demonstration of strong short-term resilience in USD/COP. He highlights that the bullish technical structure remains robust, with price staying well above the MA-20 and MA-50. Despite the absence of recent news, Karapetjanc expects opportunities for range trading as buyers dominate the intraday action. He believes the market can continue consolidating before a decisive breakout. "The bullish structure remains intact, and further gains may be achievable if resistance at 3,808.81 is challenged in the coming sessions."

Overbought signals and weak trend complicate bullish momentum

Momentum signals are mixed on the daily chart. The MACD shows bullish momentum and the RSI supports further upside, but the ADX indicates a weak trend, and Stoch RSI and CCI point to overbought conditions. BBP and CCI both reflect overbought sentiment, suggesting buyers are dominating intraday, while the Awesome Oscillator remains neutral and does not reinforce the current upward move. The session opened just one peso below the previous close, showing no significant gap. The current price sits near the higher end of today’s range, with moderate volatility and ongoing strength after the open. While intraday gains align with bullish momentum signals, numerous overbought readings and weak directional strength highlight a divergence in signals, warranting caution.

Last time, analysts noted that USD/COP is trading above its short- and medium-term moving averages, maintaining a bullish bias, but remains constrained by long-term resistance at the 200-day average and is encountering mixed momentum signals. Overbought oscillator readings and weak trend strength point to elevated near-term reversal risk, making a sideways trading scenario with limited upside the most probable short-term outcome.
