Overview

 


Proceeding from today's H4 chart, the pair is trading between the Support level of 124.50 and the Resistance level of 125.00. Given that the pair continues its bullish move and manages to break the Resistance level of 125.00 and closes 4H above, we will receive a strong indicator for more bullish signals which will enable the Resistance level of 125.30 as a level target. Then we should wait for breaking this Resistance level to continue the upward move and open the way towards the Resistance level of 125.80.
On the other hand, if the pair fails to break the Resistance level of 125.00 and bounces from it, it may reverse the bullish move taking a downward direction which will enable Support level of 124.50. Then we should wait for breaking this Support level in order to get new bearish signals. In case the pair is able to break the Support level and closes 4H below, we will get a bearish strength providing new sell signals which will enable the Support level of 123.75 as a level target. Based on the given H4 chart, the technical indicators provide buy signals, but as long as the Resistance level of 125.00 is unbroken, the downward move is still expected invalidating the bullish outlook. Therefore, we should wait for more confirmations before making the decision.
