Today’s USD/INR Target & Stop Loss

The USD/INR outlook has turned mildly bearish to range-bound after the July futures slipped from 95.56 to 95.07, accompanied by a sharp fall in open interest, indicating long unwinding rather than aggressive fresh short selling. The highest-probability trade is selling on rise below Rs. 95.35, as the daily chart continues to show lower highs with RSI slipping below the neutral 50 mark. This bearish view will be invalidated if USD/INR sustains above Rs. 95.35, which could trigger a recovery towards 95.55–95.70. Until then, rallies are likely to face selling pressure.

Probability:

65% chance of trading between Rs. 94.90 – 95.25
25% chance of recovery above Rs. 95.35 towards 95.55 – 95.70
10% chance of sharp decline below Rs. 94.80

Bullish Above: Rs. 95.35
Bearish Below: Rs. 94.95
Expected Range: Rs. 94.90 – 95.35
Best Trade Today: Sell USD/INR Futures below Rs. 94.95


USD/INR Levels Today: Support, Resistance, Futures & Trade Setup

USD/INR July Futures settled at 95.0725, losing nearly 0.49 points from the previous session. Open interest declined from 10.74 lakh contracts to 10.05 lakh, suggesting profit booking and long unwinding rather than aggressive bearish positioning.

The daily candlestick chart shows the pair struggling to sustain above 95.50, while the latest candle reflects renewed selling pressure. RSI has slipped to around 49, indicating weakening momentum, and Stochastic RSI is also rolling over after exiting the overbought zone. Unless USD/INR reclaims 95.35–95.40, traders should continue adopting a sell-on-rise strategy.

Pro-Level Upgrade (What Big Players Do)

  • Prefer selling on rallies while USD/INR remains below Rs. 95.35.
  • Avoid initiating fresh longs inside the Rs. 94.95–95.35 range.
  • Book partial profits near Rs. 94.80 and Rs. 94.65 on short positions.
  • Shift to a bullish stance only after a sustained close above Rs. 95.35 with rising open interest.
  • Watch the US Dollar Index and crude oil prices closely, as both are likely to influence the next directional move in USD/INR.
