In result of the previous trading session, the exchange rate made a breakout from the falling wedge formation. The surge was not sharp, as the pair was slowed down by a combination of the 55- and 100-hour SMAs as well as the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level.
In first half of the day the pair is expected to test the 200-hour SMA near 1,284.77. The strength of this moving average most probably will force the pair to temporarily retreat.
In larger perspective the yellow metal might notably recover against the buck, as the above breakout simultaneously signified a rebound from the bottom trend-line a one-month long ascending channel.
In that case, there the pair is unlikely to reach the support line of a long term dominant ascending channel in the foreseeable future.
