Highlights

USD/COP trades firmly below key moving averages, demonstrating sustained bearish pressure across all timeframes.
Major indicators—including MACD, ADX, and oscillators—confirm dominant downward momentum with oversold conditions persisting.
Forecast projects a trading range of COL$3,425.00 to COL$3,492.51 over five days, with sub-20% probability of a lasting rebound.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes a persistent downtrend for USD/COP with the pair entrenched below major moving averages. He sees technical momentum as decisively bearish, reinforced by multiple oversold signals and a lack of any fundamental catalysts. Kharitonov believes that short- and long-term pressure remains unresolved, with further losses probable given sellers' clear dominance. He also highlights that without news to shift sentiment, any attempts at reversal are likely to be short-lived. "Sustained sell-side pressure will likely persist unless we see a strong catalyst or sharp reversal in key technical levels," says Kharitonov.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees the current pullback as an opportunity within a volatile range. He remains constructive, noting oversold conditions could attract bargain hunters, setting the stage for potential upside surprises. Karapetjanc stresses that even in the absence of news catalysts, strong technical setups can yield rapid turnarounds in sentiment. "Buyers should watch for signs of stabilization, as market volatility offers multiple tactical setups for agile traders," affirms Karapetjanc.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes heightened bearish sentiment with technical signals pointing to further selling. He identifies short-term opportunities if the pair rebounds from oversold levels, but warns the lack of news flow limits conviction for a strong recovery. Turakhiya suggests watching session lows for a possible bounce, but capital protection should be a priority in these conditions. "Choppy range trading with volatility spikes may favor nimble traders watching for quick sentiment shifts," says Turakhiya.

Oversold readings deepen as sellers maintain full momentum control

USD/COP is trading well below the 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day Moving Averages (COL$3,591.79, COL$3,649.35, and COL$3,700.91 respectively), highlighting persistent short-, medium-, and long-term pressure from sellers. The nearest dynamic resistance is provided by the Ichimoku Kijun at COL$3,645.13, with support forming near the session’s lows. Momentum signals from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Average Directional Index (ADX) remain firmly bearish, confirming ongoing downward pressure. Oversold readings from the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic RSI, and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicate the pair is overstretched to the downside, yet the Bull/Bear Power (BBP) also shows clear dominance by sellers and reinforces the oversold signal. The Awesome Oscillator continues to support the prevailing downtrend. After opening with a downside gap of around COL$1.94, the pair has dropped COL$58.19 or 1.67%, currently sitting near the low of the daily range with intraday volatility at 1.06%. Intraday tone reflects sustained selling pressure after the open and matches the bearish momentum shown by multiple indicators.

Earlier, analysts noted that USD/COP was under persistent bearish pressure, with technical factors suggesting strong downside momentum. Fresh momentum and volatility readings continue to reinforce this outlook, making any sustained rebound unlikely and keeping traders focused on immediate support levels that could signal further downside risk.
