Bullish daily techs and weekly studies regaining traction, suggest further upside, as rally in past three weeks generated initial reversal signal which could result in stronger correction of larger fall from $102.23 (05 Mar high) to $90.97(03 Sep low).

US jobs data are in focus, with better than expected numbers in September to further inflate the greenback.
