USD/SGD’s rebound post-NFP last Fri stumbled at 21-DMA, OCBC FX strategist Frances Cheung and Christopher Wong note.

Waiting for US CPI later this evening

“Broader decline in UST yields, USD and the JPY strength this morning saw USD/SGD eased lower. S$NEER was last estimated at ~1.91% above our model-implied mid, with model implied spot lower bound at 1.3010. With S$NEER close to its lower bound, the room for further downside in USD/SGD may be limited intra-day.”

“However, if broader USD takes another leg lower, then the implied lower bound of USD/SGD can be lower. Pair was last at 1.3025. Daily momentum is mild bullish while RSI fell. Consolidation likely near recent lows as markets await FOMC decision next week.”
