Market sentiment improves as US-Iran negotiations ease geopolitical fears

US President Donald Trump has announced that negotiations with Iran will begin, easing geopolitical concerns and boosting market sentiment, according to Econotimes. Such diplomatic developments can shift trader focus away from risk aversion, affecting flows into both the US dollar and Iranian rial. As market participants adjust to reduced perceived geopolitical risk, price movements in USD/IRR may reflect these changing expectations.

Technical resistance and mixed momentum fuel indecision in trading

On the hourly chart, USD/IRR is trading above its MA-20 at IRR1,374,054 and MA-50 at IRR1,374,609, while remaining well above the long-term MA-200 at IRR1,225,635. The daily Ichimoku Kijun at IRR1,375,997 now acts as immediate resistance. Momentum indicators present a mixed picture: MACD signals a strong sell, ADX is neutral, while RSI at 53 and CCI both suggest buying conditions, and the Stochastic RSI is overbought. Bull/Bear Power indicates buyers dominate intraday price action, with the Awesome Oscillator showing a neutral stance.

Sideways movement expected as probability shifts favor bulls

Over the next 2–3 trading days, USD/IRR is projected to fluctuate between IRR1,368,039 and IRR1,381,788, in line with typical volatility for this pair. The baseline scenario envisions sideways movement within this defined band, with a 71% probability of upward movement and a 29% chance of a downward shift. A breakout above the Kijun resistance would point to bullish continuation, while a drop below support at the lower end of the range could trigger a short-term bearish phase.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees the diplomatic signals from the US as setting a constructive backdrop for the Iranian Rial. He believes news of Trump’s planned negotiations has eased risk and could draw flows away from the US dollar in the near term. Technicals remain mixed, but intermarket sentiment appears to favor stability or moderate strength for the Rial as long as geopolitical risk subsides. "If the market senses lasting progress in US-Iran talks, I expect speculators to maintain a positive bias toward the Rial within the short-term range."
