Talking Points:

  • EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 1.0461, 1.0246, 0.9997
  • Resistance:1.0712, 1.0955, 1.1040

The Euro may be readying to turn higher against the US Dollar after prices put in a bullish Morning Star candlestick pattern. Near-term resistance is at 1.0712, the March 31 low, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing a recently broken rising trend line at 1.0955. Alternatively, a reversal below the 1.0456-1.0554 area (March 16 low, 50% Fibonacci expansion) clears the way for a test of the 38.2% level at 1.0246.

We see the Euro trend as broadly bearish, in line with our long-term outlook. As such, we will approach on-coming gains as corrective in the context of a larger structural decline and position for opportunities to enter short after the move higher is exhausted. In the meantime, we remain flat.
