The Singapore Dollar continues to trade in a tight range against the US Dollar after last week’s rapid decline lost steam, according to United Overseas Bank analyst Quek Ser Leang. USD/SGD is currently consolidating with downward momentum fading, prompting UOB to forecast intraday movement between 1.2900 and 1.2935. The bank maintains a neutral outlook over the next one to three weeks, expecting the currency pair to hold within a broader band of 1.2890 to 1.2990.
The assessment signals limited directional conviction in the near term after the pair’s sharp pullback, suggesting traders should prepare for sideways action rather than breakout moves. Both forex dealers and Singapore-exposed corporates face a period of reduced volatility, with support and resistance levels clearly defined for risk management purposes.
