Early sellers leaned against that level and forced the price back to the downside helped by the FOMC rate decision.</p><p>The subsequent low reach today stalled within a swing area (see blue numbered circles in the chart below) ahead of the extreme lows for September down at 0.6364 and 0.63456. The low price today reached 0.63847. The current price has moved back above the 0.6400 level and looks toward the lower 100 bar moving average at 0.64316.

It would take a move above each to shift the bias more in favor of the buyers.</p><p>Absent that, and traders will continue to pound the lower end of the extreme including the swing area between 0.6379 and 0.6387, and the swing low at 0.63567.</p>
