Last week, the promotion players were unable to oppose anything to the opponent. Nevertheless, it must be taken into account that the players on the downside also failed to achieve any result. Thus, uncertainty and meditation continue to dominate. As of now, bears are trying to push the situation by updating and breaking the minimum of the last week (1.302) in order to regain the prospects for continued decline (daily + weekly cloud + other support levels 1.2957 - 1.2920 - 1.2885 - 1.2827 - 1.2736). However, another failure in this direction will lead the pair to the struggle for the daily advantage (daily cross 1.3148 - 1.3209 - 1.3281) again, strengthened by the weekly short-term (1.3168) and monthly medium-term (1.3167) trends.
At the moment, the initiative and the main advantages belong to the players on the downside in the lower halves. The only weakening factor is being in the correction zone, updating the minimum (1.3012) will completely restore the downward trend and the advantages of the players to decline. On the other hand, the following intraday supports are located at 1.3201 (S2) and 1.2978 (S3). In turn, overcoming the key references will change the current balance of forces. This situation can be noted at 1.3065 (central Pivot-level of the day) and 1.3101 (weekly long-term trend). Consolidation above will open up new perspectives and require a new assessment.
