The pair is now trading well below the $225 support and the 100 hourly simple moving average. It seems like the price may continue to move down towards the $213 low in the near term. If sellers clear the $213 low, there could be more losses towards the $207 level. It represents the 1.236 Fib extension level of the last major upward move from the $213 low to $239 high.
