On the bigger picture, cable's rally fm 2016 31-year bottom at 1.1491 caused by a 'flash crash' on Brexit worries to 2018 21-month peak at 1.4377 in Apr confirms major low has been made.

Last week's rise above this res to a near 9-month peak at 1.33 83 suggests upmove fm said 1.2412 low would extend to 1.3472 after consolidation, however, 'bearish divergences' on daily indicators would keep price below 1.3610 20.

Today, although price has rebounded after y'day's resumption of decline fm Mar's nr 9-month peak at 1.3383 to 1.3183 n minor consolidation would be seen, reckon 1.3280/85 would cap upside n yield another fall later. However, 1.3149 (61.8% r of 1.3005-1.3383) should contain downside n bring rebound.
