   “¢   Looking at the broader picture, the post-flash-crash recovery from 27-month lows has been along an ascending trend-channel formation on short-term charts.

   “¢   With technical indicators on 4-hourly/daily charts starting to regain positive traction, the set-up support prospects for the resumption of the recent bullish trend.  

   “¢   A  follow-through/sustained move above the 144.00 handle will reinforce the positive outlook and lift the cross towards conquering the 145.00 psychological mark.
