*COMMENTARY: Despite repeatedly pressuring the 100-DMA (41.9501) and flirting

with key DMAs bears failed to produce the close below needed to shift initial

focus to $1.9147. The recovery sees bulls focused on the $2.0485-0895 region. A

close above this region is needed to confirm initial focus on $2.1362 where 2018

highs are noted. Bears now look for a close below $2.0045 to gain breathing room

and below 1.9911 to target the 100-DMA.
