Highlights

Uzbekistan has secured around $120 billion in foreign direct investment over eight years, driven by economic liberalization and reforms.
Intraregional trade reached $10.7 billion last year, with a 17% rise in investments due to improved legal and technical frameworks.
USD/UZS is trading above key technical support, but momentum signals mixed direction, with a high likelihood of sideways or corrective moves in the $12,100–$12,350 range.

Regional investment inflows rise as legal reforms spur trade

Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan have expanded their investment partnership by increasing trade turnover and capital inflows. Uzbekistan has attracted around $120 billion in foreign direct investment over the past eight years due to economic liberalization and improvements in the investment environment. The region has also seen intraregional trade reach $10.7 billion in the past year and a 17% rise in overall investments, supported by ongoing efforts to create a more favorable legal and technical framework and new policy priorities to attract additional foreign investment.

Mixed momentum signals with overbought conditions despite price strength

Technically, USD/UZS is trading above the SMA-20, SMA-50, and SMA-200, showing a positive bias across multiple timeframes. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $12,156.58 sits below the current price, acting as immediate support. Daily momentum indicators are mixed — while the MACD signals strong selling pressure and the ADX is weak and neutral (12.94), the RSI is bullish (53.28). Bull/Bear Power (BBP) at 59.13 and Stoch RSI at 100.00 indicate overbought conditions and heavy buyer dominance, though the CCI and Awesome Oscillator remain neutral. The pair is trading near today's highs with moderate intraday volatility and shows strength to the upside despite caution from some longer-term trend signals.

Sideways trend outlook as sell signals limit upside

For the next five trading days, USD/UZS is expected to remain in a typical volatility band between $12,100 and $12,350. The likelihood of a near-term price increase is low (below 20%), with a higher chance of downside, as indicated by persistent Sell signals from higher time frame MACD, ADX, and moving averages. The baseline scenario is for continued sideways movement in a narrowing corridor. If the rate rises decisively above $12,350, further resistance could be tested, while a break below $12,100 would open the way for deeper declines and short-term corrections or consolidations.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees USD/UZS showing technical strength above major moving averages but notes the mixed momentum signals. He highlights that recent investment partnerships and capital inflows support the underlying trend, yet persistent selling pressure from higher timeframe indicators keeps him defensive. The expert maintains a cautious outlook, expecting sideways trading within the $12,100 to $12,350 range. "Until we see a clear breakout above $12,350 or a significant breakdown below $12,100, I prefer to stay neutral and wait for stronger confirmation before taking any directional stance."

Earlier, analysts noted that while short-term bullishness was present in USD/UZS, there was persistent resistance suggesting increased risk of consolidation or a downward move. The current technical setup reinforces this cautious view, indicating that traders should watch for a decisive breakout above $12,350 or a breach below $12,100 as signals for the next directional move.
