EUR/USD
Weekly Trend direction: Bullish
Weekly trend reversal level: 1.2615
S/R levels: 1.2700 - 1.2750, 1.2620 - 1.2670
Strategy: Whilst above the weekly trend reversal level, buy dips to S/R levels after an entry signal.
Medium term : Euro remains essentially range-bound between 1.2600 and 1.3000 and trending action is limited. We have managed a weekly close above the medium term SMA, which means we should head back up towards the top of the range, as long as 1.2600 holds.
Today: The euro dipped down towards support later yesterday and has held up above 1.2730. If this level holds, we should be able to rally back towards 1.2820 and then 1.2900. Before that, allow for more activity between 1.2730 and 1.2800, always allowing for the chance of another leg down to 1.2680/1.2700 first.
