Talking Points:

Prices are consolidating above support at 0.8848, the December 2013 closing bottom. Near-term resistance is at 0.8921, the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement, and a falling trend line set from late January (0.8914). Breaking above the latter barrier aims for 0.8966, the 38.2% level. Alternatively, a break below support aims for the December 27 low at 0.8798.

Narrow range-bound trading conditions do not offer a clear-cut directional trade setup. From a risk/reward perspective, prices are too close to support to justify a short. On the other hand, a defined bullish reversal signal is absent for now. We will remain flat until something actionable materializes.
