Technical Analysis:
- Critical support held at $1.657-$1.658 Fibonacci level, backed by psychological support near $1.60.
- Immediate resistance sits at $1.668 session high, with extension targets toward $1.6808 peak.
- Breakout surge of 6.85 million tokens confirms institutional participation above resistance.
- Pullback volume of 288K during late-session decline indicates controlled profit-taking rather than distribution.
- Next resistance targets $1.6808 session high (1.7% upside) and $1.70 psychological level (2.7% gain). Stop-loss below $1.657 support offers favorable 2:1 risk-reward setup for long positions.
