Comment: Bouncing ahead of the 38% Fibonacci retracement of the most recent rally and closing above the 9-day moving average. This is seen as part of the process of re-grouping this week for another re-test of increasingly important resistance around 1.3700. Note that above here there are no really strong resistance levels until the 1.4200 area. Strategy: Buy at 1.3555, adding to 1.3465; stop below 1.3400. Short term target 1.3700, then a lot more.Direction of Trade: →↗
