Today the currency couple bounced up from the 90.00 psychological level, which is playing strong support for now. Till we get clearer break out of the wide range, within which the pair is trading on the 3 hour chart, our expectations would be neutral in the medium term. The nearest resistance is Monday’s peak at 90.91, and only convincing break above it may strengthen the Dollar further, while break bellow 90.00 should extend the depreciating impetus towards next target downwards 88.61.
