EURO USD Daily Technical Analysis for Forex Traders


Overnight news suggests that the ECB will raise rates soon; traders caught wrong-footed and covered shorts hard. Stops noted above the 1.5630/40 area and the press to fresh highs at 1.5680 area likely to hold as resistance near-term. Today’s PPI data could ignite more buying if disappointing.

The downside correction is likely over if a close is above the 1.5640 area today. Crude prices will likely continue offering a bit of volatility support on dips. Longs likely to have rolled up stops under the 1.5520 area so volatility possible. I would stay away from the short side for the rest of this week
