As cable ran into renewed selling interest at 1.3358 and has slipped again, dampening our bullishness and suggesting a temporary top has been formed at 1.3383, hence downside risk remains for weakness to 1.3250-55 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.3170-1.3383), however, still reckon downside would be limited to 1.3230 and support at 1.3209-13 would hold from here, bring rebound later.

In view of this, would be prudent to exit long entered at 1.3280 and stand aside for now. Above the Tenkan-Sen (now at 1.3312) would bring test of the Kijun-Sen (now at 1.3325) but only break of said resistance at 1.3358 would revive bullishness and signal the retreat from 1.3383 has ended, bring retest of this level first.
