Doji Indicates Indecision From Traders Near 1.1270
Bullish Engulfing Formation Offers Positive Intraday Signal

The four hour chart offers a more constructive picture than the daily. A Bullish Engulfing pattern near 1.1265 offers a positive sign, yet a pair of ensuing short body candles does little to inspire confidence in further gains. Selling pressure is likely to be renewed at intraday resistance near 1.1370.
