Morning Brief — Tuesday, August 18, 2026

USD/INR holds a firm bullish bias near ₹95.59 despite a cooling RSI of 44.9, as the MACD’s downward drift suggests limited upside momentum; watch for a break above ₹95.80 to confirm the next leg. EUR/USD’s overbought RSI at 76.4 and rising MACD point to continued strength, but with no high-impact events today, expect range-bound action around 1.1583. MCX Gold’s bullish momentum persists with RSI at 82.5; a sustained move above ₹137,500 could extend gains, though profit-taking near these extremes remains a risk.
