The US Dollar is seeing possible corrective action versus the Chinese Yuan in offshore trade, as the pair blasted through the 6.6500 support level this past Friday.
As was mentioned in the prior report, the hold below 6.6860 seemed to have put focus on the 6.6500 level for possible support.
The break below 6.6500 might now imply that the level could act as resistance. If that’s the case, eyes might be on the next big level at the 6.6 handle.
A move above 6.6500 seems likely to put focus on the 6.7 handle for possible resistance.
