Key quotes
“A potential Hammer is in the process of being formed on the monthly candlestick chart. If confirmed by the end of January monthly chart close, a long-term bullish reversal pattern would be confirmed.”
“The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the September-to-January decline at 3.3465 and the 2011 low at 3.3514 are still in focus. Further up sits strong resistance between the July 2014 and January 2018 lows at 3.3794/3.4007 which we expect to cap. These levels represent our medium-term upside targets.”
“Slips should find support between the early December low and the late December and early January highs at 3.2445/33. Further support can be spotted along the 55-day moving average at 3.2016 and also at the 3.1737 January 7 low. While it underpins, we will remain bullish.”
