Price was kept below 1.277 support turned resistance and supported by Yesterday’s Low, coinciding with today’s L3 level. With ECB rate decision coming in less than 6 hours, we could see prices trading flat. However, a short covering scenario should not be ignored, potentially bringing price back to the 1.277 – 1.287 range.
