Further rise to test the resistance of the descending trend line from the July 2016 high of 1375.11 to the November 2016 high of 1337.28 is possible over the next several days. A clear break through the trend line resistance could take price to the next resistance level of 1295.44.

On the 4-hour chart, the pair stays above a rising trend line on 4-hour chart. As long as the trend line support holds, the upward movement from 1214.17 could be expected to continue. The key support for this short term uptrend is at 1245.96, only a breakdown below this level will suggest that the upward movement is complete, and this could trigger another fall to retest the support of the ascending trend line on daily chart.
The key support for the upward movement from 1122.56 is at the May 9 low of 1214.17.
