Despite a strg rise fm 2018 16-month bottom at 104.57 to 114.55 in Oct, subsequent flash crash to a 9-month low at 104.79 in early Jan suggests correction over. However, dlr's erratic rise to a 4-month high at 112.17 in mid-Apr indicates choppy tra- ding abv 104.57 would continue n said move fm 104.79 would head to 113.38 (50% proj. of 104.79-112.14 projected fm 109.71), 'bearish divergences' on the daily indicators should cap price at 114.25 (61.8% projection). On the downside, only below 110.85 dampens bullishness n risks stronger retracement twd 109.71.
