As the single currency recovered after finding support at 1.1580, minor consolidation would be seen, however, reckon upside would be limited to the lower Kumo (now at 1.1619) and bring another decline later to 1.1574-80, break there would extend recent decline to  1.1520-25, then 1.1500 but near term oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below latter level. 

In view of this, we are holding on to our short position entered at 1.1620. Above 1.1620-25 would defer and risk test of the upper Kumo (now at 1.1637) would risk another bounce towards 1.1691, however, only break there would abort and suggest further choppy trading above 1.1574 would be seen, bring a stronger rebound to 1.1700-05 but upside should be limited to previous support at 1.1725 (now resistance).
