It made intraday high at 1,176 and low at 1,170 marks.
Intraday bias remains neutral till the time pair holds key support at 1,168 levels.
A daily close above 1,182 will drag the parity higher towards key resistances at 1,196, 1,201, 1,209 (20D EMA) and 1,220 (March 03, 2016 high) marks respectively.
On the other side, a sustained close below 1,168 will test key supports at 1,146/1,132/1,127/1,117/1,111/1,101/1,089/1,078/1,063/1,044 levels respectively.
