USDTRY_TOD trade ideas

Turkish Lira is far from recovery. This is just a quick look at the USDTRY pair. I'm evaluating the recent recovery of the Turkish Lira versus the dollar from about 8.5 TL per dollar to 7.3 TL. In my estimation, this recovery has not shown enough strength to continue. We can see that as soon as it touched the bottom of the drawn curve, RSI has reached the bottom of its parallel channel. That's as far as this recovery will go. In fact, I think the next five years will see the USD appreciate against the TL by 150%, which is exactly as much as it has appreciated during the past five years. This will take it all the way up to 18TL by February 2026. This signal I consider strong enough to predict a complete reversal of this trend is significant RSI divergence, i.e., a higher high in price coinciding with a lower high in RSI. We have seen one instance of slight RSI divergence shown in the chart which has contributed to a recovery in August 2018 from 7.08 to 5.13 TL. That is 27.5% appreciation for the dollar. To imagine what a significant RSI divergence would look like, consider the most recent top on 2 Nov 2020. Look at the RSI level on that same day. We're looking for a higher top in price where RSI is significantly lower, ideally within the blue zone. That would be a strong signal for trend reversal. Another thing to notice is the blue zone and the ascending parallel channel. What's the meaning of the blue zone? When RSI climbs above it, the asset is said to be overbought. It means that price has went up too high too fast without enough real demand backing it up. However, that interpretation really depends on the parameter used. A better, easier and more reliable way to use RSI is to look for RSI divergence like I explained. That becomes even more relevant for this chart when you notice how RSI levels have been steadily climbing in the parallel channel shown. That means that the overbought zone becomes less and less significant as an indication. But it also means that TL recovery phases will be more and more volatile.

USDTRY-careful BUY strategyWell, unexpected move down for many in USDTRY based on Erdogan's financial alternatives to protect savings of Turkish Lira depositers and other measures. Trimming or going long with tight stop at $ 13.00 for re-sell $ 15.25. the monthly chart has not released enough pressure, whilst daily-chart has. GAN N support is around 13.00 area. resistance above 14.00, but noting we may correct the large decline a bit. Strategy is careful long with a re-sell objective $ 15.00. Ultimately we will go 11.25 > 10.35. No change over all, but it has helped big time and the drop has shown that gravity eventually will assist in decline. The policy will suuport Turkish Lira if it can be financially managed by their government.

USDTRY-SELL strategy medium-termUSDTRY remains defying gravity. No change of my medium-term view, and as you can see the channel resistance and support levels are the boundaries. The fast weakening of the TRY no doubt will improve the export base, and therefore natural TY inflows, i.e. the buying of TRY. Medium-term we will see 12.00- 10.35 to correct the rocket upward move. The timing, who knows, but gravity will set in. Play it safe and add very careful shorts to USDTRY.
