Trading Recommendations:

The weekly time frame chart still shows, that the up trend is still intact, however, the bears are very close to start a genuine correction. A sustained violation of the level of 1.3518 would trigger a bigger down move than a regular pull-back. When the corrective cycle is terminated, the up trend can be continued towards the next long-term target located at the level of 1.4222 (high from 24.02.2021).
