USD/TRY trades at 49.83285, up 0.22% in a day, 0.51% in five days and 1.79% in twenty days, above the 20-day average of 49.41762 and 50-day of 48.84422. Daily RSI sits at 74, MACD is above its signal with a third day of widening bars, and the upper Bollinger band at 49.92566 is close.
Price journey: up or down lately?
It has been rising. The pair gained 0.22% in a day, 0.51% in five days and 1.79% in twenty days, with the price at 49.83285 near the twenty-day high of 49.83210, a slow grind higher.
Trend: which way is the bigger picture pointing?
The bigger direction is up. Price holds above the 20-day average of 49.41762 and the 50-day of 48.84422, and short, medium and long-term technicals all lean bullish, with 48.51857 the daily pivot that keeps the upside valid.
