On Friday morning, the pair had reached the 156.50 mark. In the meantime, the recent high levels have been marked as a resistance zone.

A passing above the resistance zone at 156.58/156.73 might result in the pair finding resistance at 157.00, 157.50 and 158.00, before reaching the 2021 high level at 158.23.
