Key quotes

“During a corrective phase Fibonacci levels will provide important point of reference. Once the consolidation/correction runs its course in the near-term, we anticipate the USD/ZAR bulls to make yet another attempt to push higher as reflected in our 18.00 forecast over the 1-3 horizon.”

“This target may seem insufficiently bullish, but one should take into the account the possibility of a retracement towards the 61.8% and or even 76.4%.”

“Essentially, 18.00 will look far more bullish if USD/ZAR is trading close to 16.00 before resuming its upside momentum.”
