- Intraday bias remains bullish for the moment.
- On the top side, a sustained close above 1.0748 will drag the parity higher towards 1.0823/1.0976 (January 2016 high) /1.1062 (30D EMA)/1.1123/1.1298/1.1317 levels respectively.
- Alternatively, a sustained break below 1.06 mark will take the parity down towards key supports around 1.0560, 1.0420, 1.0315(May 05, 2015 low), 1.0261 and 1.0109 marks respectively.
- Important to note here that in a daily chart, 20D, 30D and 55D EMA heads down and confirms the bearish trend. Current upside movement is short term trend correction only.
