As seen above, the relative strength index has diverged in favor of the bears.  

The pair, therefore, could trade in a sideways manner for the next few hours or may witness a pullback to 111.64 before capitalization on the “three white soldiers” (three consecutive positive candles) seen in the daily chart.
