“We look for the 1.3185/97 April and current May highs to be retested. The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement also sits between these levels. The cross will need to regain the 1.3217 January 25 high to introduce scope to the 1.3351/82 resistance area, made up of the February and March highs, where we expect it to struggle.”

“Failure at the 200 day moving average and support line at 1.2958/34 would lead to the 1.2865 April low being eyed which in turn protects the February low at 1.2772.”

“Below 1.2772 we would allow for losses to the 1.2669 January 15 low and August low and possibly the 1.2609 78.6% Fibonacci retracement.”
