USD/TRY attained a record-high of 2.3909 late January that prompted the Turkish central bank to intervene to contain depreciation of the national currency. After that, the pair followed a pronounced downside trend for some time; however, the pair halted a drop in mid-February and commenced a formation of the channel up pattern.
At the moment, USD/TRY is succumbing to the selling pressure that is pushing the instrument below the 50-hour SMA at 2.2210. Nevertheless, 75% of market players are bullish on the pair. Besides, technical data is sending ‘sell' signals for the medium term.
