Apr-07 17:30
  • RES 4: 1.3434 High Sep 26 ‘24 and a key resistance  
  • RES 3: 1.3305 High Oct 2 ‘24
  • RES 2: 1.3207/3274 High Oct 3 ‘24 / High Apr 3 and the bull trigger
  • RES 1: 1.3016 50.0% retracement of the Apr 3 - 7 pullback

  • SUP 3: 1.2671 2.0% 10-dma envelope
  • SUP 4: 1.2559 Low Feb 28 

Monday’s rejection of a further push higher in the pair works against constructive outlook in the initial tariff reaction. Key support at the 1.2792 50-day EMA has given way . The bull trigger remains 1.3207, the Apr 3 high. Note too that moving average studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend for now.
