EUR/USD Analysis
We finally had a pull-back during the final two days of last week, with the price reaching a high of 1.3650 on Friday. The EUR was even stronger against the JPY.
Things look like they are going sideways at the moment and it might be that the price does not really go anywhere for a while. However it seems a little more likely that we will reach 1.3688 before falling down to 1.3555. Friday’s daily candle was quite healthily bullish and we did hit a 1.618 Fibonacci extension of an earlier bullish move which is a bullish sign.
I would look today for a short at 1.3688 and for a long at 1.3555, although it is quite likely we will not see much movement in this pair until later in the week.
Today will see the release of German Preliminary CPI data which may affect the EUR, although unfortunately the timing is difficult to predict. At 3pm London time there will be a release of U.S. ISM Manufacturing CPI data which may affect the USD.
