EUR/USD Analysis

Yesterday we saw a move up which included a break of the lower triangle trend line, so that line can be deleted from our map.

Today seems to be setting up for some more predictable moves, as there is a great flipped level below us at 1.2442 which was previously resistance and both a daily high and low. A breakdown to this level with a quick bullish bounce could be a great opportunity for a long trade.

There is also an inflection level above us just above 1.2500 which is confluent with a key psychological round number, and this could provide resistance.

There is also a resistant area from 1.2576 to about 1.2610 that is also confluent with the area near the ascending bearish trend line.

There are no high-impact data releases scheduled today that will directly affect the EUR. Regarding the USD, at 1:30pm London time there will be a release of Core Durable Goods Orders and Unemployment Claims data. Later at 3pm there will be New Homes Sales data released. The New York session is likely to be more volatile than the earlier London session.
