Despite yesterday’s marginal rise to 1.3159, the subsequent sharp retreat suggests top has possibly been formed there and downside risk has increased for retracement of recent upmove to 1.3035-40, however, only break of support at 1.2999 would confirm recent upmove has ended, bring further fall to 1.2980 and later towards 1.2955-60.

In view of this, would be prudent to stand aside in the meantime. Above 1.3110-20 would bring recovery to 1.3140 but only break of said resistance at 1.3159 would revive bullishness and signal recent upmove has resumed for headway to 1.3185-90 and then 1.3210-20.
