  • USD/ZAR is currently trading around 14.42 levels.
  • It made intraday high at 14.43 and low at 14.34 levels.
     
  • Intraday bias remains neutral for the moment.
     
  • A daily close above 14.38 will take the parity higher towards key resistances around 14.52, 14.72, 14.90, 15.18,  15.44,  15.98 and 16.24 marks respectively.
     
  • Alternatively, a daily close below 14.38 will drag the parity down towards key supports at 14.20, 14.05, 13.65, 13.50, 13.40, 13.22, 13.10, 12.99 and 12.70 levels respectively.
     
  • Important to note here that 20D, 30D and 55D EMA heads up and confirms the bullish trend in a daily chart. Current downside movement is short term trend correction only.
     
  • South Africa will release CPI as well as core CPI data at 0800 GMT.

We prefer to take short position on USD/ZAR around 14.45, stop loss at 14.52 and target of 14.20.
