EUR/USD Analysis
The situation with this pair remains the same: range bound with no long-term trend. In fact looking at a long-term chart shows a very solid consolidation around 1.1000.
The positive impact of this is that it becomes possible to trade clearly identified support and resistance levels in both directions as they tend to hold, albeit such trades achieve only relatively small profit targets.
The chart below shows how the support at 1.1025 held again on Friday. The price is now bumping up against resistance at 1.1120 but I am not looking to take a short trade there just. I prefer to wait for 1.1170.
A breakout from the 1.1025 – 1.1170 range could be interesting.
There is nothing due today concerning either the EUR or the USD.
