  • No clear signs of bearish exhaustion yet; maintain bearish bias below a tightened key short-term pivotal resistance now at 1.1275 for a further potential push down to target 1.1180 follow by the medium-term support of 1.1130/1120 (also the current year-to-date swing low area).

  • Mix elements now, prefer to turn neutral between 109.00 and 108.25. An hourly close below 108.25 revives the short-term bears. On the flipside, a daily close above 109.00 sees a further recovery towards the next resistance at 109.90.
