Higher Timeframes

The bears have started testing the monthly support level (1.0611). The outcome may determine the pair's possible movement. The next support level after breaking the current one (1.0611) will be the lower boundary of the weekly cloud (1.0503). In the event of a rebound, the first resistance may be provided by the daily short-term trend, which is currently at 1.0746, and with each passing day, it will move closer to the price chart.
