With continued downside weakness seen, the cross looks to hold on to its broken support and weaken further. In such a case, its key support standing at the 126.53 level will be targeted on further declines with a cut through here aiming at the 125.45 level followed by the 124.50 level and then the 122.02 level, its Jan 25'2012 high. Its daily RSI is bearish and pointing lower supporting this view. The alternative scenario will be for it to return above 131.77 level, leaving the cross targeting its big resistance residing at the 133.46 level. A clearance of here will resume its medium term uptrend towards the 135.09 level. Further upside offensive above here will call for a run at 136.97 level. All in all, the cross continues to hold on to its short term weakness.
