Failure to extend intra-day rebound and current retreat from 1.3015 suggest caution on our long position entered at 1.2960 but as long as yesterday’s low at 1.2926 holds, prospect of another rebound remains, above said intra-day high would bring test of strong resistance at 1.3043-48, however, break there is needed to confirm early upmove has resumed and extend headway to 1.3075-80 and possibly towards 1.3100-10 later.

In view of this, we are holding on to our long position entered at 1.2960. Below said support at 1.2926 would abort and risk weakness to 1.2900 but break of indicated support at 1.2889 is needed to signal top has been formed at 1.3048 earlier, bring retracement of recent upmove to 1.2850-55 first.
