• The pair was seen consolidating overnight strong gains to fresh weekly tops and now seems to have formed a firm base near the 200-hour SMA.
• Technical indicators on hourly charts remain supportive of the bullish move, though are yet to catch up with the positive momentum on the daily chart.
• The fact that the pair is holding well above intraday important moving averages - 50, 100 & 200-hour SMA, support prospects for an extension of the recovery move.
• Currently hovering around 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the 1.3082-1.2782 downfall, traders await the release of NFP report for fresh directional impetus.
