The pair has been recently oscillating between the range of 1.1452 and 1.1365 as both the buyers and the sellers attempted to take control over the price.

The buyers placed greater pressures since the 6th of April 2016 and led the price to rise from 1.1325 to 1.1452. Today’s major pivot point area is the 1.1403 level.

Probable Scenario

The latest stabilization of the pair slightly close to the 1.1403 area is a good indication that the price may retrace to the downside.

In the event where the pair drops, the sellers could lock their profit at 1.1325.

The Stochastic oscillator confirms the downtrend formation thus showing that the pair has greater probabilities of retracing downwards.

Alternative Scenario
