<p>On the daily chart below, we can
see that after breaching the key <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-support-and-resistance-20220405/“>support</a> level at 11492 the sellers
couldn’t maintain control and the buyers came in with vengeance pushing the
price back above the level. The price is now at the red long period <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-understanding-moving-averages-20220425/“>moving
average</a> which will act as resistance. </p><p>The rally on Friday is seen as a
squeeze as the <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/news/us-february-ism-services-pmi-551-vs-545-expected-20230303/“>ISM
Services PMI</a> beat expectations and should have been bearish for
the market as good news is now seen as bad news due to the repricing of higher
interest rates. </p><p>On the 4 hour chart below, we can
see that the buyers will now fight with a strong level before getting more
conviction for higher highs. The price has rallied into a <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-support-and-resistance-20220405/“>resistance</a> zone with the <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-confluence-20220318/“>confluence</a> of the 50% <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-using-fibonacci-retracements-20220421/“>Fibonacci
retracement</a> level. </p><p>The strong rally on Friday has
also overextended the price from the blue short period moving average. In such

</p><p>On the 1 hour chart below, we can
see more closely the near term price action. We can see that while the price
was breaching the support at 11492, it was <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-understanding-divergence-20220429/“>diverging</a> with the <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/Education/technical-analysis-understanding-macd-20220427/“>MACD</a>.

momentum and generally signals a pullback. </p><p>The moving averages on this
timeframe have clearly crossed to the upside and conservative sellers may want

can fold quickly. </p>
