From a technical perspective, the pair did what consumers wanted initially — pushing again above the 100-day shifting common at 0.78639. That’s a bullish step. Nevertheless, the rally ran right into a wall in a key swing space between 0.7869 and 0.7878, which additionally strains up with the 38.2% retracement of the 2026 vary at 0.78739.
