“As we highlighted last week, the market recent high of 1.6259 was not confirmed by the daily RSI, and this coupled with reversal from the 2009-2013 downtrend at 1.6324 suggests that the market has topped for now.”

“Intraday rallies are indicated to terminate circa 1.6100/25. Our focus is the 1.5864 3 month uptrend. The market will need to close below here to confirm that it has topped short term and trigger losses to 1.5430, then 1.5104.”
