  • The nine-day EMA is above the 50-day EMA, indicating that short-term upward momentum is likely to continue.
  • A break above the nine-day EMA at 0.6201 level prompts the pair to revisit a seven-month high of 0.6247.

Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains above the 50 level, confirming the overall bullish trend. However, if the RSI breaks the 50 mark, it could signal a potential momentum shift from a bullish to a bearish trend.
