USDZAR trade ideas

Rand looks like is about to fallThe Rand has been range bound against the USD dollar Between the R18 – R17.90 support zone and R19.30 – 19.60 resistance zone. In the last couple weeks, the Rand printed two inverse hammer candles. Those inverse hammer candle to me signal that the Rand buying that brought the price back to the R18-R17.90 support zone. Is slowing down and losing some strength. Couple with that a bullish divergence pattern. Signal to me that the Rand is about to turn against the Dollar. Back to the R19.30 resistance

ZAR optimismThe rand is enjoying its post-election optimism and the broad-based decline in the dollar is adding strength to the currents. A break below the 18.12 support will confirm the move lower towards 17.86. The fact that the pair tested, but couldn’t hold, levels above the 61.8% Fibo at 18.56 and the 50-day MA at 18.38 is rand positive coupled with the fact that precious metal and copper prices are holding firm. Locally, the markets have the latest SA mining and manufacturing results for the month of May to look forward to which are expected to come in strong off the back of another month free of loadshedding!

USDZAR-SELL strategy 3-hourly chartThe market still feels the uncertainty, and that makes it a difficult task to get the direction right. Wwe have had SL executed, but overall, we still should see lower levels. There is no confirmation as yet that we see lower, but the run up from the 17.90s low, shouyld still need some corrective action. The stochastic is high, and turning. so we try again. Strategy SELL @ 18.5850-18.6350 and place SL above 18.7350 for now and profit let's say @ 18.4350.
