It made intraday high at 1151and low at 1149 levels.
Intraday bias remains bearish till the time pair holds key resistance at 1162 mark.
A sustained break below 1152 will tests key supports 1142/1134/1127 (October 2015 low) /1121/1115 levels respectively.
Alternatively, a daily close above 1167 will drag the parity higher towards key resistances at 1176, 1182, 1196, 1201, 1209 (20D EMA) and 1220 (March 03, 2016 high) marks respectively.
In addition, South Korea’s Kospi was trading 1.14% higher at 1,985.92 points.
We prefer to take short position in USD/KRW only below 1142, stop loss 1152 and target 1127 respectively.
