The pair failed to hold a break above daily resistance @ 0.7032 yesterday and is falling back under 0.7000 towards a test of the key hourly moving averages again now.

The 100 and 200-hour MAs are seen nearby @ 0.6968-73 at the moment. Those will be the key near-term levels to watch in the sessions ahead.

Stay above that and the near-term bias remains more bullish, but break back below and the near-term bias will turn more bearish instead with sellers seizing control.

Other dollar pairs are also firming in favour of the greenback with EUR/USD now down to a low of 1.1386 and cable easing to a low of 1.2527 on the session.
