Recap Was consolidating until BOC surprised the world with a rate cut. Surprise breakout target of 200% range expansion tagged by the end of the week. Closed the week above Y+4 and near week high.

More upside likely this week as many shorts are trapped. 1.26 is next mild resistance zone that may put a pause to the run.
