The spot reached the 109.00 handle and is now finding support just above it and the main SMAs. As the bulls are in control the market can try to push higher towards 109.50 and 109.90 and 110.15 levels, according to the Technical Confluences Indicator. On the flip side, a bear break below the 108.45/28 price zone would be seen as bearish with a potential drop to the 107.83 and 107.61/49 support zone.
