Today, Fri's rally abv 134.54 (now sup) to 134.49 n present rising hourly indicators suggests upside bias remains for gain to 135.55/65, o/bot readings would cap price below 135.96 (61.8% r of 139.39-130.41). On the downside, only a daily close below 134.54 may risk weakness to 133.55/65 later b4 rebound.
