Current rally in NY morning together with the breach of previous resistance at 1.3159 confirm recent upmove has resumed and upside bias is seen for further gain to 1.3210-20, then towards 1.3240-50, however, near term overbought condition should prevent sharp move beyond 1.3275-80 and reckon 1.3300 would hold from here, risk from there has increased for a retreat to take place later.

In view of this, would not chase this rise here and would be prudent to buy cable on pullback as the Tenkan-Sen (now at 1.3149) should limit downside, bring another upmove later. Below 1.3110-15 would defer and risk test of support at 1.3097 but only break there would signal a temporary top is possibly formed, bring further fall towards previous support at 1.3052.
