“The market is capped n the topside by its 55 day ma at 103.28. This guards 104.45 en route to the more important 105.45/50 recent high and long term Fibo.”

“We have a multitude of supports between 101 and 100, we look for this ‘zone’ to underpin. This area is also reinforced by the 55 week ma at 99.41.”
