Day trade update and view
A solid, sideways consolidation on Monday dip after Friday's rebound from above new, initial support at 1.1859, to reinforce the early April rally from 1.1736 to push above our 1.1895/1.1900 resistance area to 1.1927, to keep risks higher for Tuesday.
Day trade setup
- We see an upside bias for 1.1927 and 1.1947/50 and maybe towards key 1.1989/1.2001; a break here maybe aims 1.2054.
- But below 1.1859 opens risk down to 1.1794 and possibly 1.1736.
Intermediate-term outlook
The early March sell off signalled an intermediate-term shift to bear trend.
- Downside risks: We see an intermediate-term bear trend to target 1.1799 and 1.1627.
- What changes this? Above 1.1989/1.2001 sets an intermediate-term bull trend.
