Having said that, as cable has staged a rally fm 1.4053 to 1.4274, suggesting aforesaid pullback fm 1.4437 has possibly ended n choppy trading with upside bias is in store, a daily close abv 1.4385 res would encourage for re-test of 1.4437 where a break there would bode well for further headway twd Feb's peak at 1.4672 in Apr. On the downside, only below 1.4053 suggests correction fm 1.3836 has ended n risks weakness to 1.4000, then 1.3836.
