Pair's Outlook
It appears that the currency couple is forming a rising wedge pattern on a daily chart at the moment ahead of a major down-trend resistance line that halted rallies for more than three years. Being that the wedge is a reversal pattern, we favour a strong rejection of the pair once it approaches an apex located at a 106 level presumably in the middle of December.
