  • On the higher side minor resistance is around 1.4740 and any break above targets 1.4770/1.4780 (200 day MA).Cable should close above 200 day MA for further up move  and any indicative break above will take the pair till 1.48500/1.4900 in short  term.
     
  • On the lower 1.46670 is acting as minor support and any break below targets 1.4640/1.4600 level.
