Prices are retesting resistance at the underside of a Rising Wedge chart pattern completed last week (1.0468), a barrier reinforced by a major falling trend line set from late July 2011 (1.0480). A break higher targets 1.0578. Initial support lines up at 1.0367, the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion, with a drop below that exposing the 1.0136-81 area. We continue to hold short.
