Following the pair’s recent depreciation from the 253.01 level, traders are contemplating whether or not the pair will trade below the psychologically-important 100.00 figure for the first time since December 2018, or if the market will attempt to stabilise above that area. The market has since orbited the psychologically-important 200.00 figure and traded as high as the 206.28 area as traders continue to speculate whether positive market sentiment will propel price activity higher, or whether negative market sentiment will push price activity lower.
