Bears pressure initial Fibo support at 1.0679 (23.6% of 0.9535/1.1032) reinforced by rising 55DMA (1.0663), break of which would generate fresh bearish signal and expose strong support at 1.0564 (top of rising thick daily cloud), followed by targets at 1.0483/60 (Jan 6 higher low / Fibo 38.2%).
Caution on strongly oversold stochastic which warns that bears may pause for consolidation in coming sessions.
Broken daily Kijun-sen (1.0757) reverted to solid resistance which should ideally cap, though extended upticks under south-turning daily Tenkan-sen (1.0864) would keep near-term bearish bias in play.
Res: 1.0757; 1.0798; 1.0864; 1.0940.
Sup: 1.0679; 1.0663; 1.0564; 1.0483.
