Analysts said the ringgit is already at an overbought position from the technical chart.
Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist and social finance Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid said the ringgit is already at an overbought position from the technical chart, implying that some correction is quite likely in the near term.
"However, should the NFP report be higher than what the market expected, there is a tendency for the US dollar to get stronger as the Fed will likely continue to deliver a 25 basis point hike in May. Meanwhile, the local note traded mostly lower against a basket of major currencies compared to a week earlier.
