However, due to a bearish gap today, trade opened below this mark. Consequently, the monthly PP is now providing immediate resistance, while the second target is located around 1.4250, represented by the weekly PP, the 20 and the 55-day SMAs. Meanwhile, the weekly S1 and the Bollinger band form a support cluster around 1.3977, as a possibility of a bearish development exists, amid technical studies in the medium and longer timeframes remaining bearish.
