MACD dips below its trigger line

"A brief pullback has materialized. Daily MACD has dipped below its trigger line highlighting receding upward momentum. This is not a reversal signal but denotes possibility of a pause. The 200-DMA at 1.2810/1.2780 is a short-term support. Defense of this zone is crucial for persistence in up move."
