USDZAR
Bullish Bias on USDZAR (W Formation)Clear W formation on the 4HR for USDZAR. Will it complete and the pattern and push to the upside possibly hitting the 14.30 -14.35 range or will it push down and break the 13.95 range of support? If the bullish bias is kept we would be expecting a reaction around the 14.32 range of major support to plan the next move. TP 1 on the current setup it set at 14.16 - 14.18. Comments will be appreciated.
Where to USDZAR?Hi traders. I am really not sure about this pair please write your comments below.
USDZAR has a positive correlation with USDTRY. I have been looking at these currency pairs since yesterday and I went short USDTRY. Why would Gold, Silver and USDZAR all go up while USDTRY go down? Shouldn't USDZAR go down also?

A differnt perspective on the value of the randAccurately and reliably forecasting a currency is near impossible, however, its easy to have an opinion. The question is, what do you base your opinion on?
As a South African, I follow the rand closely, particularly against the US dollar and the pound. One can use a purchasing power parity (PPP) or real effective exchange rate (REER) chart to calculate a "fair value" through analyzing the numbers. But the rand has everything to do with sentiment and the global economy and very little to do with the South Africa economy.
I put this chart together to try and understand the rand from a global context.
Assumption: there is a high correlation between the price of gold in US dollars and the M2 money supply.
The chart shows the M2 money supply in orange compared to the price of gold in rand terms which is shown by the blue line. We can see that the two lines have significantly diverged from each other over the last 8 months. If we assume that the M2 line will only ever go up and can never revert down, then we can assume that the price of gold in rand terms must also go up over time, all else being equal.
It would therefore stand to reason that the price of gold in rand terms is in a cyclical low and may suggest an attractive entry point.
What about the correlation between the price of gold in rand terms vs the rand dollar exchange rate?
The green line shows the rand dollar exchange rate in comparison to the price of gold in rand terms. It's evident that there is a high correlation between the two however, the the divergence between the two particularly over the last 2 years, shows the real appreciation in the price of gold.
So where does that leave us?
The assumption that the price of gold in rand terms is correlated to that of the M2 money supply, suggests that the price of gold in rand terms needs to increase. The correlation between the price of gold in rand terms and the rand dollar exchange rate suggests that the rand needs to weaken or depreciate over time. Makes sense?
I therefore ask the question as to whether the denominator that one should also follow over time is actually the direction of the M2 money supply in relation to the rand?
This also backs into monetary policy in the largest economies and the US in particular.
It stands to reason that the rand is far to strong at these levels if the world continues to print money? Its not sustainable!

USDZAR weekly candleThe pair has been bouncing between the 200-week MA and 100-week MA since the start of the year. The 200-week MA is a strong support rate for the pair and a strong catalyst will be needed for the rand to sustain rates below this MA (such as the "Ramaphoria" period in 2017).
Technical indicators are favoring a topside break out of the downward channel from 2020. The weekly MACD is holding a buy signal. There is divergence on the weekly RSI which is suggestive of rand depreciation. A falling wedge pattern also seems to be forming.
USDZAR bounced over a monthly support 🦐USDZAR after a few tests of the monthly support starts an impulse and currently is consolidating below a minor resistance area.
According to Plancton's strategy if the price will break above we will set a nice long order.
