USDMXN 240min
Notes:Momentum divergence into this resistance zone was a hallmark for the near-term pullback which is now approaching initial support. Look for a break of this range between 18.8931-19.2996 for guidance on our immediate directional bias with a breach higher towards key resistance to ultimately offer more favorable short entries. From a trading standpoint, while within the confines of this range I’ll still favor selling rallies.
