Mid−Day Forex Technical Report − Yen Rally Lost Steam, Dollar Recovers Mildly by ActionForex.com
Cable's fall from 2.0099 extends further today and break of 1.9755 confirms that whole decline from 2.1161 has resumed. At this point, intraday bias remains on the downside as long as 1.9842 minor resistance holds and further fall should be seen to next downside target of 1.9554. On the upside, 1.9842 will turn intraday outlook neutral first.
