Key Quotes

“Technically, the 4 hours chart shows that the price is having trouble to recover above its 20 SMA, whilst the technical indicators have turned lower around their mid-lines, with the Momentum indicator still above the 100 level, keeping the risk towards the downside, but not yet confirming a downward continuation.”

“If the short term recovery extends above 1.4890, the pair can resume the upside, and advance up to the 1.4920/40 price zone, although sellers will likely cap the pair around that area.”

“To the downside, renewed selling interest below 1.4830, the daily low, should lead to a downward continuation down towards the 1.4770 price zone.”
