By reading the Market Structure and current as long as Price Action on longer time frames, I would be making the following predictions to future price action on the pair:
- There is a strong area of interest between 1.27003 and 1.26431. - A Pullback into this area of Interest is expected. - Closure and movement in larger time frames (1Hr, 2Hrr or longer) below the level of 1.26431 may result in the price dropping even further to a level of 1.24547. - If the price stays and keeps on moving above 1.27003 a Bullish Trend to the Top of the Long-Term channel may also take place with Target # 1 @ 1.27595 and Target # 2 @ 1.28082 - However, Momentum towards the “Down side’ is fading Momentum towards the price go down even more after consolidation is not increasing with every bar that closes (4hr) - If price pushes above the 1.28082 level the possibility of reaching the Top of the Channel @ 1.28945 (Also the highest level for 2024) is very good.
