HO remains vulnerable despite the gains earlier this week. The move lower Monday

confirmed a resumption of this year's downtrend paving the way for more

downside. The focus is on $1.0566, a Fibonacci projection and $1.0000. Note,

Monday's price action created a $1.2297 - $1.3783 gap on daily charts and was

partially filled Wednesday. It would not be a surprise to see the market fill

this gap. Whether it happens in the near-term or later remains to be seen.
