Over the past several days, the USD/CNH has been coiling inside a tight range, awaiting direction from the oil market. Well oil prices collapsed, and down went the dollar and up went risk assets. The net impact on the yuan was positive. The USD/CNH pair has weakened a little bit more today. If it can take out support at 7.1700 on a daily closing basis then this could potentially pave the way for more technical selling towards 7.1500 initially, ahead of potentially lower levels next. But if risk appetite sours again, or we otherwise see a breakout above the bearish trend line, then in that case all bearish bets would be off the table again.
