Key Quotes:
"The pair however, trimmed its intraday losses and advanced up to 1.0881 during the American afternoon, but also failed to sustain gains, ending the day with limited gains in the 1.0850 region.
Technically, the pair maintains the neutral stance seen on previous updates, with a slightly positive tone coming from the 1 hour chart as the price is above its 20 SMA and a strong static Fibonacci resistance at 1.0845, the 38.2% retracement of the December rally. According to the 4 hours chart, the upside remains limited, with the price unable to establish above a bearish 20 SMA, and the technical indicators losing their upward potential within negative territory."
