  • The pair has edged above 5-DMA at 100.17, which is now immediate support on the downside.
     
  • Momentum studies are neutral, upside could gain traction only on break above 10-DMA at 100.59.
     
  • On the downside break below 5-DMA finds strong trendline support at 99.60, break below could accentuate weakness.
