FxWirePro: USD/DKK plunges to near 2-year low, outlook remains bearish

  • The Danish Krone slumped to a near 2 year peak earlier in the session following upbeat economic data. 
     
  • Denmark's retail sales rose by 6.6 percent year-on-year in June, following a downwardly revised 5.2 percent gain in the previous month, its second straight month of increases and the biggest since February of 2008. However, on a monthly basis, retail sales surged 1.4 percent, easing from an upwardly revised 9.7 percent jump in May.
     
  • Moreover, weakness in the greenback supported the bid tone around the Danish currency.
     
  • The dollar index declined to an over 4-month low, weakened by deteriorating U.S.-China relations and domestic economic concerns as U.S. COVID-19 infections showed no sign of slowing.
     
  • USD/DKK is trading 0.3 down at 6.3623, having hit low of 6.3483 earlier, its lowest since September 2018.
     
  • Immediate resistance is located at  6.4103, close above could take it till 6.4384 (5-DMA). 
     
  • On the downside, support is seen at 6.3353 and any break below will take it till 6.3137.
