In accordance with expectations, the currency exchange rate continued to move to the south within one-week long descending channel.  

The further deprecation of the buck was supported not only by the pressure of 55-, 100- and 200-hour SMAs that were moving along the pattern's upper boundary, but also by the increased US CPI and ongoing war of words between the US, North Korea and Iran. 

At the moment, the northern side is additionally protected by the updated weekly PP at 112.13, while the southern side lacks of any notable technical barriers up until the weekly S1 at 111.43. 

These facts as well as the 56% bearish market sentiment suggests that in the nearest future the currency rate most probably is going to continue to move to the bottom.
