Tracks US stocks
The recovery from the US session low of 1.4378 appears largely due to the mild gains seen in the US stocks. As of now, the Dow index is trading 0.20% higher contrary to risk-off the futures were indicating before the opening bell.
Consequently, the spot is back around 10-DMA. With no major data due for release, the pair could continue to mimic the stock market action.
