We have used the combination of the top-down trading analysis and the Andrews Pitchfork channels to get to a trading entry stop loss levels and targets. On the daily chart, there is a new clear Schiff Pitchfork channel and a daily close above it, 149 level would lead to an upside extension into the 153 level. The pair is testing the upper channel half line. You can enter a good risk to reward long trade entry with the stop loss below the 145.450 level, targeting 149 and 153 level higher.
