“Initial support at 1.2944, the 78.6% retracement has been eroded and the focus is on the 1.2797/50 July low and Fibo. Intraday resistance lies 1.3055 and key resistance is now the top of the triangle at 1.3390”.
“Support at 1.2750/78.6% retracement of the move from 1985 to 2007 is regarded as the last defence for the 1.0463 1985 low”.
