Having formed a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Lower High last Friday, sellers are pilling on the pressure to test the main support levels before the uptrend resumes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Price is currently probing the 50 Simple Moving Average (1.5215) on the 4H chart. Stochastic remains in overbought territory on the 4H and Daily timeframes, indicating the retracement is not complete at this point. If price remains stable below the 50 SMA, in the coming days the decline could continue towards 1.5114. This level represented a very strong resistance in recent weeks and could very well flip and turn into support as price tests it from above. A support trendline and the 100 SMA on the 4H time frame also add further strength in this area.<\/p><div id=\"inves-3272978975\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At this point, stop losses from short traders are accumulating above the most recent Lower High at 1.5275.
