This level needs to hold for the price to move upwards and possibly test the resistance again. If this level doesn’t hold, the price could potentially reach the fib’s golden pocket of 0.618 around 0.93568 and the weekly 50 MA. If the price still goes further down the price could reach and test the 200 MA. Further afield, if the price smashes through all these supports, there could be a possible test of support around 0.883.

Shorting the top or near the top of relief pumps might be a safer trade than taking longs on supports in hopes of a relief pump.
