Fed rates and investment forum drive cross-border flows for USD/UZS

the Federal Reserve Board's recent publication of selected interest rates, including the daily effective federal funds rate, sets the foundation for USD funding costs and influences cross-border capital flows, thereby impacting the demand for the US Dollar against the Uzbekistani Som. Additionally, the fifth Tashkent International Investment Forum has brought together global investors and Uzbekistan's government to discuss new economic opportunities, potentially affecting capital inflows and cross-rate dynamics. Meanwhile, the meeting between Russia and Uzbekistan's leadership on bilateral trade may signal enhanced economic cooperation, contributing further to shifts in currency demand.

Bullish indicators and overbought signals as upside momentum builds

USD/UZS is trading above the MA-20 (UZS12,024.01) and MA-50 (UZS12,015.64), while holding below the MA-200 (UZS12,092.15), with the Ichimoku Kijun sitting at UZS12,020.97 as immediate support. Recent momentum indicators include a MACD Buy signal and neutral readings from ADX and the Awesome Oscillator. RSI stands at 62.08 (Buy), however, both the Stoch RSI and CCI are in overbought territory, as is BBP, emphasizing significant short-term buyer dominance and elevated intraday levels.

Limited upside risk as sideways movement remains likely

Over the next 2–3 days, USD/UZS is forecast to trade within the range of UZS12,010.26 to UZS12,130.96. Probability remains high for further upward movement, though a sharp pullback is considered very unlikely. The most likely scenario is sideways movement within this corridor, while a bullish break above resistance could target the UZS12,130.96 area. Should price fall below the Kijun and lower range support, a bearish tone could emerge and alter the short-term outlook.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees a constructive outlook for USD/UZS driven by macro and fundamental factors. The analyst notes strong influence from the Federal Reserve's recent rate update, which supports USD demand. Ongoing international investment discussions in Uzbekistan and stronger Russian ties may further underpin capital inflows. Karapetjanc believes technical signals confirm short-term buyer dominance, with limited risk of reversal. "With global macro dynamics supportive and investor sentiment robust, I expect USD/UZS to favor the upside toward UZS12,130.96 in the near term."

Earlier, analysts noted that downside risks were intensifying for USD/UZS amid persistent selling pressure and weak momentum. The current rebound above key short-term moving averages, bolstered by fresh buy signals and positive macro catalysts, suggests traders should now watch for a potential breakout above the UZS12,130.96 resistance to confirm a shift toward sustained bullish momentum.
