“Despite the directional move seen last week we continue to look for this to hold the topside and provoke reversal. We note the TD perfected set up on the weekly chart and this adds weight to the idea of initial failure.”
“Support is offered by the 1.5985 minor Fibonacci retracement – while above here the market remains immediately bid. Only below here will allow for a slide back to the 1.5686 3 month uptrend.”
