On the downside, only a break of 0.9212 (last Tue's high, now sup) wud be the 1st signal a temporary top is made n risk retracement twd 0.9176, however, reckon sup at 0.9126 wud contain weakness.
. Today, as dlr has staged a rebound fm U.S. post-NFP low at 0.9287, consolidation with upside bias is envisaged, abv 0.9336 wud extend marginal gain but upside wud falter below 0.9386. Only below 0.9255/56 aborts n risks 0.9212.
