  • Intraday bias remains bearish till the time pair holds key resistance at 6.90 mark.
     
  • A sustained close above 6.8914 marks will test key resistances at 6.9037, 6.9146, 6.9204, 6.9336, 6.9496, 6.9615, 6.9778 and 6.9883 marks respectively.
     
  • Alternatively, a daily close below 6.8914 will drag the parity down towards key supports at 6.8683, 6.8550, 6.8465, 6.8333, 6.8298, 6.8090 and 6.7769 marks respectively.
