EUR/USD Analysis
This pair has continued to fall and broke below the anticipated support at 1.1162 which should now be erased as a key level.
The key thing with this pair is that it is now pulling back into an area which we should expect to be supportive. The problem is that it is not clear at what price the support will eventually kick in. Nevertheless the area at around 1.1050 was the upper limit for a few months and we had a forceful breakout above that during the recent leg up, so it is logical to expect some kind of bounce.
At the time of writing it does not look like the price is ready to move up yet. A bounce off the round number at 1.1100 or the level just below that at 1.1075 would be logical.
I think today is going to be an up day.
There is nothing due today concerning the USD. Regarding the EUR, it is expected that the German Constitutional Court will at some time issue a key ruling on the legality of the ECB’s purchase program. At 10am London time there will be a release of German ZEW Economic Sentiment data.
