Key Quotes
“We highlighted last Tuesday (10 Aug, spot at 33.45) that ‘while conditions are deeply overbought, further USD/THB strength is not ruled out’. We added, ‘the next resistance is at 33.60 followed by 33.80’.
“Our expectations did not materialize as USD/THB fell sharply to 32.96 before rebounding quickly. The rapid rebound has room to test 33.55 first before the risk of a deeper pullback would increase.”
“The next resistance at 33.80 is unlikely to come under threat.”
