The pair comes under increased pressure at the beginning of European session, after narrow-range consolidative trading during the Asian session. Extension of weakness from yesterday’s upside rejection at 1.3020 and break below 1.2945, completes hourly head and shoulders pattern, opening prospect for further easing, as price broke below 1.2936, Fib 61.8% of 1.2881/1.3020 upleg / broken channel resistance off 1.3170. As near-term indicators dip into negative territory, bears see immediate target at 1.2900 base, previous lows / daily Ichimoku cloud top, loss of which to confirm double-top at 1.3020 and risk return to very strong support zone at 1.2830/00, also 7-week range floor. Initial resistance lies at 1.2945/50 zone, while only lift above 1.2970/80 would ease bear-pressure.
