confirm a break of the 100-DMA (Sgd1.3621) and focus on $1.3720. Daily studies

correcting higher is a concern for bears. Bears continue to look for a close

adding weight to their case. Bears still need a close below 2017 lows to target

2016 lows. Bulls need a close above the 200-WMA to ease bearish pressure and

above Krw1126.8 to hint at a bounce back to the 55-DMA (Krw1130.0).
