Notes: The pair came off support early in the week with today’s reversal off the 96-handle now testing the lower median-line parallel of the proposed pitchfork off the monthly lows. The focus remains weighted to the topside while within this formation with a break sub 94.50/58 needed to put the short-side back into play (bullish invalidation).
We’ll look to buy pullbacks / RSI resistance triggers while above key support with a breach above the ML / 95.80 targets subsequent resistance objectives at 96.16 & 96.64/77. A quarter of the daily average true range yields profit targets of 19-22pips per scalp. Event risk is limited out of Canada & Japan this week so we’ll keep a close eye on key themes coming out of the Asia/Pacific region as it continues to impact global market sentiment with Chinese retail sales & industrial production on tap tomorrow.
