Talking Points

  • EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred
  • Selling Reignited In The Wake Of A Hanging Man
  • Bullish Reversal Signals Absent In Intraday Trade

EUR/USDhas extended its declines with a Hanging Man formation in the rearview mirror. With bullish reversal signals absent a close beneath the 1.2620 barrier would open a descent on 1.2500. Yet a clean run lower is likely to prove difficult given recent ‘messy’ price action.

The four hour chart tells a similar narrative to the daily. An absence of bullish candlestick patterns suggests the potential for further weakness. Clearance of the 1.2600/20 region would pave the way for a push towards the 1.2500 floor.
