Strong bullish pressure was seen during retesting 50% Fibonacci, resulting in bullish engulfing candlestick extending further above 1.5400 (61.8% Fibonacci). This opened the way directly to 78% Fibonacci around 1.5550 which constituted temporary intraday resistance that held the price below for 5 days before bullish breakout took place on August 15.
The cable established ascending bottoms around 1.4800, 1.5100, 1.5210 and recently 1.5420, those bottoms have been supporting the ongoing uptrend so far.
Key Supply Zone is placed near 1.5750 and would be a clear target area for anyone buying this market.
Key demand levels is placed around 1.5430. We can watch for the price action around this demand level to get back in line with the uptrend especially after the obvious bullish rejection manifested in Wendnesday’s daily candlestick.
Based on the chart above, the cable was trending up within the depicted ascending wedge, the upper limit of which is around 1.5690-1.5700 provided significant supply supported by the overbought state of the pair.
Bearish pressure was applied to visit the minor uptrend line located around 1.5560 which was broken down opening the way towards 1.5540 (78% Fibonacci Level and a previous broken top).
The price level of 1.5530 is a prominent target for the sellers off 1.5690. However, fixation below 1.5540 enabled the bears to push towards 1.5430 where an ascending uptrend line comes to meet the pair probably providing a valid BUY entry with SL located below 61.8% Fibonacci around 1.5390.
Fixation above 1.5530 is vital for the bulls to keep pushing higher. However, failure to do so will probably activate a bearish Head and Shoulders reversal pattern.
