Daily chart
The bullish doji reversal confirmed on Friday has opened up upside towards the 10-day moving average (MA), currently at 0.7100.
The pair may close above that bearish (downward sloping) average today if the US Personal Spending and core PCE – Fed’s preferred measure of inflation – due today at 12:30 GMT miss expectations, validating Fed’s patience on rates.
