   •  Reverses an Asian session dip to sub-1.3300 level and finally breaks through a short-term descending trend-channel formation on the daily chart.

   •  With short-term technical indicators gradually picking up positive momentum, a follow-through buying beyond the mentioned barrier would reaffirm the bullish break and pave the way for an extension of the pair's near-term upward trajectory.
