   “¢   A modest USD retracement seemed to be the only factor prompting some profit-taking amid overbought conditions on the 1-hourly chart.

   “¢   The fact that the pair has managed to hold above an important resistance break-point, coinciding with 50% Fibonacci retracement level, support prospects for additional near-term up-move.
