The price is in a constant deceleration mode as the sellers have been able to patiently and steadily force the pair to lower zones.

The pair has slightly stabilized since yesterday’s trading session at 1.1492.

Stabilization and minor bullish attempts are surfacing again slightly below the 1.1492 level which is today’s major pivot point area.

Probable Scenario

In the condition where the bulls are able to withhold the price close to the 1.1492 zone and exert greater pressures, the pair could appreciate to 1.1616.

Similarly, the Stochastic oscillator indicates that the pair has greater probabilities of retracing to the upside at the 40 level.

Alternative Scenario

In contrast, in the scenario where the pair drops to the 1.1455 area and the bears place more pressures, taking advantage of the bearish volatility, the price could decelerate to the 1.1365 zone.
