EUR/USD Analysis

I wrote yesterday that the area between 1.1150 and 1.1068 can be expected to be very crucial support, so it would not be a big surprise if this pair starts to recover here. We have had a move up from this area.

The price is right now at the time of writing at a critical level, bumping up against a long term trend line which is about one month old, as well as a shorter term trend line which has acted as resistance. Clearing the long-term line would be a major trend line break. However as there is still some time to go before the London open I cannot really talk about how to trade this. Once things settle after the London open, the position of the price relative to the trend line should be taken into account.

Above this trend line, there are several key resistance levels, all below 1.1300. This will probably be a formidable obstacle to any bullish move.
