USD/SEK is approaching a key psychological barrier at 9.3110, which if broken and confirmed with follow-through could result in a price spike as traders’ confidence in the pair’s bullish momentum is solidified. Since breaking through the upward-sloping January 2019 support area, the pair appears to have now found a new incline guiding in from March. This support will be tested as the pair approaches the psychological milestone at 9.3110.
If March support holds and the pair climb through 9.3110, it will signal that its upward trajectory is stronger than the selling pressure associated with upcoming resistance. To receive updates on the Swedish Krona’s price action, you may follow me on Twitter at @ZabelinDimitri.
USD/SEK – Daily Chart
Short-term volatility from the upcoming US non-farm payroll data may rattle the chart formation and could cause violent swings in the pair in either direction, though it is unlikely to alter the broader uptrend the pair has seen since the start of 2018. The default for the pair appears to be bullish despite small retreats and congestions it has experienced along the way.
