On Thursday the pair did break below support at 1.4820 but was rejected by 1.4800. This resulted in a push above the 1.4860-1.4870 level which triggered the test of the recent highs at 1.4900. It failed to push above 1.4920 which is the next breakout level.

The pair currently sits at 1.4867. Minor resistance has developed at 1.4880. A break of that may be good for a scalp, but until the pair moves back above 1.4900 there is no strong directional bias. A push above 1.4900 indicates a test of 1.4920. If that level that can be penetrated, 1.4950 and 1.4980 are the targets/resistance beyond.

A drop below 1.4839 indicates a move to 1.4820-1.4810. If the pair continues to sell, support comes in at 1.4770 and beyond that 1.4740-1.4730.

Keep in mind the NonFarm Payrolls come out of the US Friday at 13:30 GMT. This is one of the biggest market moving events, thus the markets get very erratic around the announcement.
