    Cable met renewed selling interest at 1.3461 and has fallen again, adding credence to our bearish view that top has been formed at 1.3550 and downside bias remains for the erratic fall from there to bring retracement of recent rise to 1.3340-50 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.3221-1.3550) but near term oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below 1.3300 and reckon 1.3260-65 would hold, bring rebound later. 

    In view of this, we are holding on to our short position entered at 1.3440. Only above said resistance at 1.3461 would defer and risk test of resistance at 1.3483 but break there is needed to signal an intra-day low is formed instead, bring another bounce to 1.3530-35 first.
