1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “In our most recent narrative from two days ago (30 Oct, spot at 0.6565), we pointed out the ‘Although the weakness has not stabilised, given that the current decline is entering its second month, the potential for further sustained weakness may be limited.’ We also pointed out ‘The next level to monitor is 0.6520.’ There is no change in our view.
