USD/TRY is trading at 48.3125 (+0.17%), pressing against all-time highs as the lira’s structural depreciation persists. The pair remains firmly in an uptrend, trading above both the 20-day SMA (47.9398) and 50-day SMA (47.3929), with the ascending dynamic channels confirming bullish momentum. The nearest dynamic resistance stands at 48.3877 (+0.16%, 752.5 pips away), while dynamic support sits at 48.0698 (-0.50%, 2426.5 pips below) in the 20-day channel. The 50-day channel shows a steeper ascent, with resistance at 48.4032 (+0.19%, 906.8 pips away) and support at 47.9818 (-0.68%, 3306.7 pips below). Static levels show immediate resistance at R1 (48.2812, -313 pips from current) and support at S1 (48.1954, -1171 pips), though these may offer limited containment given the pair’s momentum.

The RSI at 81.2 signals extreme overbought conditions, historically a precursor to consolidation or retracement in USD/TRY. However, with the Central Bank of Turkey maintaining negative real rates and FX reserves under pressure, fundamental drivers outweigh technical warnings. The pair’s ATR(14) of 0.1816 suggests today’s range (48.2351–48.3302) aligns with recent volatility.

Short-term, the path of least resistance remains upward, but the proximity to the 52-week high (48.3126) and overbought RSI warrant caution. A break above 48.3877 could trigger a test of 48.40, while failure to hold 48.1954 may signal profit-taking. The next catalyst is Turkey’s August inflation print (due September 5) — any upside surprise would reinforce lira weakness. Until then, the ascending channels favor buying dips.
