EUR/USD

Medium Term Trend: The break above 1.2750 last week was important, when the euro rallied above retracement resistance and the 50 day moving average at around 1.2750. Unfortunately, there was little follow through and the "Doji" candle on Friday suggests we may have a little more consolidation at these levels before moving on higher. Dips should be contained above 1.2750 and certainly 1.2700, allowing the euro to pick up a little more bullish momentum this week, possibly reaching 1.2950/1.3000.

Strategy today: Buy at 1.2740/1.2720, stops below 1.2700, target 1.2850

Chart: Breaking higher but struggling to maintain momentum.
