Key quotes
“The failure to reach the double-top of 1.2645 and a potential retreat back to the uptrend channel are bearish signs. On the other hand, momentum on the 4-hour chart remains to the upside and the Relative Strength Index has dropped below 70, moving out of overbought conditions.”
“Support within the channel awaits at 1.2470, a swing high from early May, followed by 1.24, a round number.”
“Some resistance is at 1.2575, a stepping stone on the way up. The recent peak of 1.2615 and the double-top of 1.2645 are next.”
