Key resistance holding again warrants attention

Spot gains stalled close to the January 17th intraday peak for the USD which was itself a test of the 50% Fibonacci retracement resistance (1.3538) derived from the USD’s Q4 sell-off.

The rejection of the low/mid-1.3500s on the intraday chart is not definitive at this point but key resistance holding again warrants attention.
