A decline would first reach for the support cluster near the 1.1250 level. Near that level there are the simple weekly and monthly pivot points and the 200-hour SMA.
On the other hand, the pair could find support in the 100-hour SMA and surge. A surge could be slowed down by the 55-hour SMA, the 1.1300 level and the simple weekly R1 pivot point at 1.1308.
