  • Also, UK manufacturing production for March, due for release on 11th will be eyed for further direction.
     
  • The pair is holding break above 200-DMA, we see weakness only on close below.
     
  • Bullish RSI divergence adds to upside bias in the pair. Price action is holding above daily cloud and momentum studies are bullish.
