Pivotal support 1.5530 returned to form the vital support short term direction, where we expect the pair to succeed in breaching it due to the effect of stability below SMA 50.

The breach of the mentioned level, alongside stability above SMA 50 are factors that encourage us to hold onto yesterday’s suggested scenario; therefore, we expect a bullish intraday trend starting its targets at 86.90 then 87.35. Keep in mind the importance of building a base above 85.15 to insure resuming the ascend expected for today.

The bullish technical pattern where its neckline is at the level awaited to be breached; therefore, supporting the awaited ascend for today. The first awaited target is around 1.0590, where it points out that these expectations will prevail as long as the daily closing’s stability is above 1.0325.

Keep an eye on trading today cautiously, where the breach of 1.0345 holds the key to causing the bearish trend’s fail in prevailing and lead to the pair towards 1.0470 initially.
