Technical divergence appears as momentum stays bullish near resistance
Momentum indicators show bullish conditions, with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signaling a strong buy and the Average Directional Index (ADX) confirming trend strength. However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic RSI, and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) all show oversold readings, highlighting technical divergence from momentum’s bullish signals. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) remains negative, indicating sellers dominate intraday action, though an oversold bias is present. The pair continues to consolidate strength near recent highs, with the nearest resistance at the Ichimoku Kijun level of Rp17,894.9 and dynamic support from MA-50.
Previously it was reported that USD/IDR was exhibiting bullish momentum supported by technical indicators and consolidating near recent highs. With the latest data showing continued medium-term strength amid technical divergence, traders should watch for either a decisive breakout above recent resistance or signs of renewed downside as consolidation persists.
