Having said that, as both hourly & daily technical indicators' readings would be in oversold territories on next fall, reckon 'psychological' sup at 1.4000 would hold this month. Therefore, selling cable on recovery is recommended n only abv 1.4476 confirms temporary low is made, risks 1.4604.
. Today, as cable had continued its recent losing streak y'day n closed near the day's fresh 5-1/2 month bottom at 1.4237, suggesting test of indicated chart obj. at 1.4228 would be seen n possibly twd 1.4201, bullish convergences on the hourly indicators should keep price abv 1.4178. Abv 1.4286/90, 1.4323/26.
