USDSGD Forecast – Break Below 1.34 Signals More Losses
From a technical standpoint, the primary trend is bearish, with the U.S. Dollar ranging sideways against the Singapore dollar, approaching the apex of the symmetrical triangle.
If the Bears close and stabilize the price below the ascending trendline and the immediate support at 1.344, the downtrend will likely resume. If this scenario comes into play, the downtrend might test May’s all-time low at 1.342. If the selling pressure increases, the next bearish target could be the 78.6% Fibonacci at 1.335.
The Bullish Scenario
The descending trendline is the immediate resistance level. If the bulls raise the price and break out from the ascending trendline and the 1.351 mark, the pullback from 1.342 could expand and aim for 23.6% Fibonacci at 1.357. In case of a breakout above 23.6%, the next bullish target could be April’s peak at 1.366.
