- If the price remains below 0.5960 and the buying weakness continues, a return to breaking the 0.5945 support level would signal a resumption of the downtrend towards 0.5915, followed by 0.5890 as a medium-term support level.
- A break of 0.5915 with a strong candlestick could lead to a retest of the weekly low near 0.5860.
