As the greenback has retreated after rising to 113.09 yesterday, suggesting consolidation below this level would be seen and pullback to 112.10-20 cannot be ruled out, however, reckon downside would be limited to 111.80-85 and bring another rise later, above said resistance at 113.09 would extend recent rise to resistance at 113.33 but loss of upward momentum should prevent sharp move beyond 113.60-70.
In view of this, we are still looking to buy dollar on pullback as 112.00-10 should limit downside and bring another rise. Below 111.80 would defer and risk weakness to 111.60 but only break of said support at 111.37-41 would abort and signal top is formed instead.
