Near-term focus remains at the downside targets at 1.0335, Jan 2003 low and 1.0206, July 2002 high, ahead of 1.0069, Fibonacci 76.4% retracement of larger 0.8225/1.6039 rally, with test of parity level becoming more realistic. Corrective rally on oversold near-term studies is seen preceding fresh attempts lower, as setup of daily /weekly studies remains firmly bearish.

However, oversold daily studies require caution, with close above 1.07, to signal stronger corrective action.
