Switching to the daily time frame, we can see that there's a horizontal support at the lows at 1.053 and a switch-back kind of resistance (coming off the prior lows) at 1.12. We also notice a horizontal multipivot line at 1.091.
We can also notice that one swing high has been taken and that there have been no new lows since Jan. 2014. This behaviour can be best encompassed with a Schiff Median Line Set (pink). Price has found resistance at the upper MLH ('H' stands for parallel) and at least a temporary support at the median line. It's also got a blue horizontal S/R line that may act as a magnet on price.
Taking a closer look we notice that price has been following the blue Median Line Set, hit the Median Line twice and then sharply declined. The selling force was so strong and vehement that price failed to find support at the lower MLH, broke through it and stopped falling well below it. This overshoot doesn't mean though that this blue pitchfork and its derivative slope aren't working. On the contrary, we expect price to continue following it, be it to the lower MLH or even higher - back within the fork. The added sliding parallel at the low may be breached once or twice, but we'll draw an extra parallel as long as price doesn't close for good below the current low (which is at 1.0812).
Upon our further observation we can see that price has also found support at the half-way level of the up trend which is also an argument for the up trend's continuation.
However, another close-up reveals an important piece of information - on an hourly chart we can see that price is trending down, following a down fork (red). On the other hand, that market is actually in the process of correction - it's not making further advancements in terms of the slope of the red fork, but keeps approaching the red median line.
Now we're at a point, where we can get little new information. We can see higher highs and higher lows. But they're no big deal - corrective in nature and making little progress above each other. Hasn't it found resistance at an internal parallel? Yes, it has, but it has also found at least a temporary support at the red lower MLH. So is it going to find resistance at the red median line, if it zoomed through it last time? Maybe it won't and it will go down or it will zoom through it again to find resistance at the blue horizontal line. We don't know it yet.
What we know is that:
1) we are above the long-term support,
2) we are in a long-term bear trend, which is in the process of a substanstial correction,
3) the long-term accelerating corrective process was met with resistance and gave in,
4) the sell-off was overreactive in nature, so it marked a low that couldn't be matched during the next three swings down.
Thus both the strength of the long-term correction (to the up side) and the news-driven sell-off (to the down side) provide evidence in favour of some kind of return to balance, which having weighed-in all of the above, speak for a return to the red down sloping ML or the horizontal blue multipivot line.
