EUR
Support / Resistance
vs USD 1.1353 / 1.1462 ⬇

GBP

Support / Resistance
vs USD 6.7508 / 6.7984 ⬆

CAD
Support / Resistance
vs USD 1.3993 / 1.4230 ➡

JPY
Support / Resistance
vs USD 161.37 / 164.09 ⬇

SGD
Support / Resistance
vs USD 1.2873 / 1.2961 ➡
SGD weakened against USD yesterday, as a firm dollar and cautious regional sentiment kept Asian currencies subdued, leaving the Singapore unit marginally softer. USDSGD rose 0.02% yesterday while SGDHKD ended at 6.07 level.
MYR
Support / Resistance
vs USD 4.0322 / 4.1397 ➡
Overnight, broader USD traded a touch firmer overnight alongside higher US yields, while equities stayed supported which should keep USDMYR probing the topside of the broader 4.05-4.10 range for now. That said, MYR sentiment should still find some underlying support from the constructive Malaysia macro backdrop, so any upside in spot may remain gradual rather than aggressive unless the dollar leg extends further. Flow-wise, activity has been relatively light, with biased USD selling seen from corporates while custodian, bond-related and offshore names were biased USD buying yesterday. Today, the pair opened at 4.10 and expected to trade at the range of 4.07-4.11.
