Technically, the price is moving closer to a cluster of resistance defined by the 38.2% retracement of the move down from the end of September high at 1.09345, the 100-day moving average at 1.09404, and above the 200 bar moving average of the 4-hour chart at 1.09555. Getting above that area would have traders looking toward the 50% midpoint of the same move lower and 1.0988 followed by a swing area between 1.1001 and 1.10145.
Holding resistance against the cluster of resistance would give sellers the go-ahead to push back to the downside. Ultimately, a move below the 200-day moving average of 1.0869 would need to be broken to increase the bearish bias.
