From a technical perspective, sellers had their opportunity during the Asian-Pacific session. The price did briefly move below its rising 100-hour moving average, currently at 1.39599, but downside momentum stalled ahead of a key swing area between 1.3948 and 1.3966. The inability to break below that support zone, along with the 200-hour moving average near 1.3937, encouraged buyers to step back in.
Since then, the pair has rebounded above both the 100-hour moving average and the upper boundary of the swing area. For sellers to regain control in the short term, they will need to push the price back below the swing area and ultimately beneath the 200-hour moving average at 1.3937
