*COMMENTARY: The aggressive rejection ahead of the 55-DMA leaves the contract

looking heavy as it flirts with the 100-DMA ($1.9262). The $1.9081 support

remains key. Bears need a close below to gain breathing room and below $1.8788

to reconfirm focus on $1.8186-1.8384 where 2018 lows are noted. Bulls need a

close above $2.0173 to end bearish hopes and shift focus back to $2.0995.
