BIAS: The structure has a wide range of upside possibilities but the emphasis should be lower

Resistance: 1.4276 1.4293-97 1.4322 1.4347
Support: 1.4225-50 1.4196 1.4170 1.4140

MAIN ANALYSIS: The break above 1.4321 has basically broken any chance of a direct follow-through in an impulsive decline.

Once this decline is complete we shall require another correction higher and could be quite deep.

COUNTER ANALYSIS: There is one alternative outcome that we must also consider. Because the recovery from 1.4004 came in 3-legs, there is the risk of a complex correction here also. If that 1.4004 low holds again, there is a chance of a reversal higher in a possible alternative complex correction.
