Technical outlook:

USDZAR dropped through the 15.8000 lows on Friday before finding support again. The currency pair rose above 15.9000 during the European session on Monday and is expected to push through 17.00-10 going forward. Bulls might remain poised to hold prices above the 15.1600 interim low to keep the momentum intact.

USDZAR has been rallying since June 2021 after registering lows at around 13.3700 as marked on the daily chart here. The rally is just a counter-trend to retrace from the earlier drop between 19.3390 and 13.370 respectively. As seen on the above chart, bulls are progressing within the counter-trend and it is into its final leg higher towards 17.08-10.

USDZAR is well supported at around 14.40 and prices should ideally stay higher. The recent upswing is also been carved between 14.40 and 16.28 respectively. Projected targets are towards 16.80 and up to 17.50 going forward as traders prepare to hold long positions against 15.00.

Trading plan:

Potential rally through 17.10 against 15.00

Good luck!
