The Singapore Dollar continues to consolidate and remains pretty much unchanged against the US Dollar since the beginning of this year. USD/SGD still faces the key 1.3381 – 1.3419 support zone, which it has struggled to pierce. Positive RSI divergence continues to remain in play, showing fading upside momentum. That can at times precede a turn higher. Immediate resistance appears to be the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), with the 50-day line above. Clearing support exposes the 100% Fibonacci extension at 1.3350.

The US Dollar consolidated against the Indonesian Rupiah this past week. USD/IDR continues to trade between converging trendlines. Falling resistance from April 2021 is trying to guide the pair lower as rising support from October offers a floor. In addition to the trendline above, the 14370 – 14402 resistance zone is a key ceiling. Extending gains above the latter exposes the November peak at 14438. On the downside, clearing the 14190 – 14223 inflection range exposes the October low at 14075.

Below the latter is the 23.6% Fibonacci extension at 50.348. If resistance is taken out, that would expose the 2020 high at 52.140.
