PBOC devalues yuan for the third consecutive day

al_dcdemo Posted 13 Aug.  in #Trader's blog #Support #Resistance #Pboc #Devaluation #H1 Chart #USD/CNH
PBOC devalued yuan last night again, this time by 1.1% (vs. 1.9% on Tuesday and 1.6% on Wednesday). They said that the move is about transition to more market based approach to yuan pricing. That sounds good, but I think they don't mind that their currency weakened as a "side effect".
The pair (USD/CNH) found support around Tuesday's high (6.4350). Wednesday's pullback looks quite deep. It's not a classical one way market in this case but, with reference rate (fix) now at 6.4010, I think further…

China devalues yuan

al_dcdemo Updated 11 Aug.  in #Trader's blog #Pboc #Devaluation #H1 Chart #USD/CNH #Reference Rate #Offshore Yuan
PBOC devalued yuan fix by the most on record (1.9%) overnight. The reference rate is now set at 6.2298, from 6.1162 previously. USD/CNH (offshore yuan) has so far rallied almost 1900 pips and is currently stalling ahead of 6.40 level.
