EURUSD
Trading strategy: small short at 1.2060, stop at 1.2130 (0.5% risk), objective at 1.1920
The euro pulled back from recent bottom at 1.1875 but remains capped at 1.1980 – not far below the 1.2 handle. Important resistance is seen a bit higher – at 1.2150, while interim barriers are emerging at 1.2050 and 1.2100. Potential break above 1.1980/00 will be a bullish confirmation on intra-day basis, but the resistance region between 1.2100 and 1.2150 will probably limit gains, maintaining the short-term sentiment bearish. However, we’re far from levels which would confirm a short-term reversal, therefore selling into rallies might be the best bet for now. Current exchange rate is 1.1972 @06:00 GMT
Support: 1.1875/00, 1.1800, 1.1750 and 1.1650
Resistance: 1.1980/00, 1.2050, 1.2100 and 1.2150
Market sentiment: long term – bearish, medium term – bearish, short term – bearish, intra-day – slightly bullish
