If this level is tested, it is possible that it will start working upwards with the target of 1.3725 - the lower fractal (daily candlestick from 08/17/2021).

Alternative scenario: the price from the level of 1.3738 (closing of yesterday's daily candlestick) will try to start moving upwards in order to reach the historical resistance level - 1.3800 (blue dotted line). Once this level is tested, the upward movement may continue with the target of 1.3824 - the 38.2% retracement level (blue dashed line).
