USD/MXN Monthly Forecast: September 2026

(MENAFN- Daily Forex) The month of August delivered lower trajectory for the USD/MXN. On Friday the 21st and Monday the 24th of August the currency pair went below the 16.90000 ratio as financial institutions showed confidence in selling positions. However, the broad Forex market this past Friday was hit by another rather cautious speech from U.S Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh which caused some USD centric strength to flourish. The USD/MXN briefly touched the 17.06500 vicinity before starting to filter lower again.

USD centric attitudes although flustered by Fed Chair Warsh\u2019s speech on Friday, seemingly has begun to be looked at as another act of double-speak. While Warsh warned about a possible interest rate hike due to concerns about inflation at the Jackson Hole Symposium, he did not say it would happen, thus creating a lack of clarity Lower and Selling in the USD/MXN ThoughtsThe USD/MXN has turned in a steady lower trend. The currency pair was traversing near 17.35000 in the early days of August, but before that had showed plenty of downside power and was suffering from a storm of reversals in July. But on the 4th of August the USD/MXN finally showed enough power to penetrate and sustain value below the 17.20000 level. Consistent selling has been seen in the in currency pair since then, but it can and should be pointed out that USD centric weakness has been illuminated in the broad Forex market too USD/MXN is now traversing values it last saw in June of 2024, this as the Mexican election was held on the 2nd of June that year. Previous to the election the USD/MXN had been trading within lower realms frequently (yes with upside action too) and prices around the 16.80000 to 16.70000 were being challenged. In other words lower values in the USD/MXN have been seen before and financial institutions may believe there are reasons to once again lean into a stronger Mexican Peso.

But betting blindly on downside price action is precarious at best. Moves lower aren\u2019t likely to carry a significant amount of price velocity as they struggle with technical support ratios that have plenty of programmed trading set around their ratios. Meaning that speculators looking for moves that create fast trading it actually may come from upside reversals when reactions to lower values occur. This opens the door to technical traders looking to take advantage of sentiment in the marketplace need to use conservative leverage as always. For traders looking for continued downside action from the USD/MXN, they cannot be blamed and may be proven current over the coming weeks. The next Federal Reserve decision is on the 16th of September and this will certainly cause plenty of volatility in the USD/MXN leading up to the FOMC announcement and afterwards. Choppy conditions may be problematic in the coming weeks as financial institutions try to gauge their outlooks while a lack of clarity persists.
