As long as 139.25 holds on the upside, a further drop to 138.15 and even to 137.80 seems more likely to occur.

The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as long as it remains below the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 138.15.

According to that scenario, long positions are recommended with the first target at 139.65 and the second one at 140.00.
