Financial institutions remain nervous, but technical traders likely notice the USD/SGD is hovering near the highs seen last week and seem to be running into resistance. It will be important to measure if current resistance levels hold. Another part of the equation which should be factored into the USD/SGD trading this morning, is that American financial institutions were largely absent from the trading landscape yesterday because of a major holiday Dynamics in the USD/SGD

While traders who have a desire to try and short the USD/SGD at the current heights may find the currency pair is able to move lower, they should also acknowledge that short-term conditions are likely to remain choppy.

Current Resistance: 1.33670

Current Support: 1.33570
