  • MNI Techs: A fairly strong close Monday strengthens the intraday reversal and exposes key near-term resistance at 1.1831, Oct 12 high. This level represents the trigger for a resumption of the bullish reversal that occurred on Sep 25 and would open 1.1859 initially, a retracement level. Sub 1.1684 levels, Sep 30 low, is required to reinstate a bearish threat.
