The US Dollar (USD) is currently facing a major resistance at 151.00, but analysts believe that it may not be able to maintain its position above this level in the long run. According to UOB Group’s FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia, there has been a clear increase in momentum and if the USD manages to break above 151.00, the focus will shift to 152.00.
