- The pair closed below the key support of 71.53 (Sept. 14 low) yesterday, bolstering the already bearish setup, as represented by the descending 5- and 10-day exponential moving averages (EMAs), 14-day relative strength index of 33.00 and lower highs and lower lows pattern.

- Over on the 4-hour chart, the RSI is at its lowest since June, indicating the sell-off is overdone. As a result, a corrective bounce could be in the offing, before further downside unfolds.
- The overall bearish view would be aborted if the corrective bounce, if any, ends up pushing the pair above the descending (bearish) 10-day EMA, currently lined up at 72.07.
