“With no headlines behind the move, the pair stands around 1.6640 with the 4 hours chart showing indicators maintaining a strong upward momentum despite in extreme overbought levels, with no signs the pair may pull lower at the time being.”

“Immediate support stands at current daily low around 1.6590 and approaches to the level should be seen as buying opportunities towards this year high of 1.6666.”

“A price acceleration beyond 1.6670, should see the pair extending its rally up to next big resistance, the 1.6745 price zone, monthly high for April and May 2011.”
