The 100 SMA is also around this area and is below the longer-term 200 SMA to signal that the path of least resistance is to the downside. Stochastic is already turning lower to indicate a pickup in selling pressure. This suggests that the current barrier around the 38.2% Fib might be enough to keep gains in check and push the pair back to the swing low or lower.
