“Provided that the market holds here then we favour a recovery to the 1.1576 200 day ma and the 1.1623 mid-October high and slightly longer term we target 1.1772, the 55 week ma. Near term rallies will need to regain the 1.1449 1100 day ma to re- focus on the topside and while capped here the market will remain on the defensive. Supports at 1.1267, 12.16 are expected to hold.”

“Failure at 1.1267 will trigger losses to the 1.1216 recent low and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the 2017-18 advance at 1.1186. Please note that we continue to regard the 1.1216 recent low as an interim low for the market.”

Long term trend (1-3 months): A rise above the recent high at 1.1625 would confirm a trend reversal and put the 55 week moving average at 1.1795 back on the cards.”
