Directional Bias

  • Bias: Neutral-to-Long (reversal setup)
  • Confidence: Medium
  • Rationale: Cable in accumulation after recent markdown. Price coiling above 1.2150 demand suggests smart money absorbing supply. Break above 1.2210 confirms markup to 1.2250. Failure below 1.2150 triggers deeper correction to 1.2080.

"Cable accumulating above 1.2150 demand; buy dips with stops below zone, target 1.2250 supply where institutional sell orders cluster."
