Despite last week’s late rise to 0.9837, the subsequent retreat to 0.9771 suggests top has possibly been formed there and consolidation with mild downside bias is seen for weakness to 0.9750-55 (50% Fibonacci retracement of 0.9670-0.9837), however, break of 0.9730-35 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement) is needed to add credence to this view, bring further fall towards support at 0.9710 which is likely to hold on first testing.
On the upside, whilst recovery to 0.9805-10 cannot be ruled out, reckon said resistance at 0.9837 would hold and bring another retreat later. Above said resistance at 0.9837 would shift risk back to upside and signal the rise from 0.9421 low is still in progress, then gain to 0.9875-80 would follow but reckon 0.9900 would hold from here. As near term outlook is still mixed, would be prudent to stand aside for now.
