It made intraday high at 6.8774 and low at 6.8444 levels.
Intraday bias remains slightly bearish for the moment.
A sustained close above 6.8739 marks will test key resistances at 6.8938, 6.9290, 6.9414, 6.9590 and 6.9726 marks respectively.
Alternatively, a daily close below 6.8739 will drag the parity down towards key supports at 6.8457, 6.8300, 6.8198 and 6.8037 marks respectively.
