An excerpt from Pro Commentary

 

 Price:                             0.9329

Resistance:0.93470.93680.93990.9455
Support:0.92900.92600.92410.9220

Hourly chart with indicators

Bias:The 0.9347 level is the last barrier to the upside

Daily Bullish:Well, the 0.9330 resistance has been taken out. I do see one more at 0.9347 which is still intact but now we need to be a little more careful. Any break above 0.9350 would trigger follow-through to 0.9368 – care as this could cause a reaction – but the implication is a stronger one to above 0.9399 and to 0.9445 at least.
MT Bullish:The move above 0.9330 is annoying but there is a small target at 0.9347 also. If this breaks it implies follow-through to 0.9445 minimum and the next projection is at 0.9515. (10th April)
Daily Bearish:The breach of 0.9330 is frustrating. There is still a bearish divergence in the hourly and 4-hourly charts that suggests we still need to be careful. We should note an alternative target at 0.9347 and while this area caps we could still argue a bearish stance. This would require a break below yesterday’s low at 0.9260 and then the price support at 0.9241. Below should extend to the 0.9177-80 area. 
MT Bearish:The bearish stance is hanging on by a thread now with the only hope if 0.9347-50 caps. Below 0.9240-60 would assist and cause follow-through to 0.9177-80 and probably 0.9030-40. (10th April)

 

ELLIOTT WAVE COMMENTS

Elliott Wave Chart

9th April

 

Price reached 0.9321 and while there is still risk of seeing 0.9330 it does seem as if the rally is complete. This should imply a decline below the last Wave b of Wave v of Wave (c) at 0.9240 which should provide a pullback. Breach will imply losses back to the old Wave (b) at 0.9030.

 

10th April

 

We’ve seen a small break above 0.9330 and we should also note a small wave equality target in Wave c of Wave v of Wave (c) at 0.9347. With a bearish divergence this could still work for losses to the old Wave (b) at 0.9030. If 0.9350 breaks then the 138.2% projection in Wave (c) is way up at 0.9445.
