Downside corrective

“We consider that near-term weakness is corrective and ideally look for it to be contained by the 55-day ma at 1.1963 and the 200-day ma at 1.1946.” 

“The 50% retracement of the rally seen in April lies at 1.1927.” 

“Recovery should re-target the end of April high at 1.2150.” 

“Above 1.2150 we look for gains to 1.2210/43, the 78.6% retracement of the move seen this year and the February high and then 1.2349 the 2021 high.”
