Action Zones

Setup Entry Trigger TP1 TP2 SL
📉 Short S1 1.3398-1.3401 Upthrust rejection 1.3375 1.3365 1.3405
📈 Long D1 1.3373-1.3379 Spring bounce 1.3390 1.3400 1.3370

Momentum View

IF upthrust at S1 during OB window → probable pullback to D1; else neutral range likely persists in low-volume Asian context.
