Meanwhile, the price is melting within bearish territory and is on the verge of breaking current support from which an optimal entry point there can open an aggressive  1:5  R/R or a conservative 1:2 R/R with a higher-stop.

In either scenario, the bears can look to go  risk-free on a break of the next layer of support at 130.00 to target 129.50.

Further downside potential

The market has since reverted back to a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and the confluence of old support.

The price can be expected to fall further if this holds as resistance.
