EUR/USD Analysis
The pair may move strongly today as there are important USD data releases at 1:30pm London time. We have no bias as the picture is choppy and the price channel which has been containing this pair for the last two weeks is wide. We have a new, steeper higher bullish trend line below. The overall picture is complex but we have levels and trend lines that are most likely to present any opportunity today as a reaction level after the news releases.
