“We look for gains to the 200 day ma at 1.1553. We would allow for minor dips to hold at 1.1390, and it remains underpinned by the 2016-2019 uptrend at 1.1307.”

“We have additional support offered by the 1.1267/70 November and December lows. Provided that the market holds here we favour a recovery to the 1.1556 200 day ma and the 1.1623 mid-October high and slightly longer term we target 1.1745, the 55 week ma.”

“Failure at 1.1267 will trigger losses to the 1.1216 recent low and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the 2017-18 advance at 1.1186. Please note that we continue to regard the 1.1216 recent low as an interim low for the market.”
