The pair under pressure, following weekly close just above fresh low at 100.20 and overnight’s action being capped at 100.70. With near-term studies holding in the negative territory, immediate risk is seen on a break below 100.20, to open psychological 100.00 support and pivotal zone for retest, as break here is seen as a trigger for further easing and extension of corrective pullback from 103.72 high.

The pair regained some ground on a bounce from last Friday’s low at 0.9548, as Asian session opened with gap higher and price bounced above 0.9600 barrier.

While the latter barrier, reinforced by descending 55 day EMA, stays intact, no significant prospect for stronger recovery would be seen in the near-term, with violation of 0.9527, would trigger fresh weakness and expose psychological 0.9500 support for test.
