  • The daily ATR is 100 points, so there is room for a range extension during the day.

However, prior to the event, there is reluctance to hold stocks. If the talk is dovish, the dollar could take a hit and prices could break out of the session highs and head for 0.725 in the near term. The daily ATR is 100 pips, so there is room for a range extension during the day, as the market has only completed around 75% ATR so far.
