EUR/USD Analysis
I took a bearish bias yesterday, and this worked out fairly well, with the price falling during the first part of the London session to new lows before recovering later. There is a new, lower resistance level at 1.1571. There is a long-term bearish trend. The final part of the Asian session sees the price trying to rise, and it looks as if 1.1571 will be the pivotal level today. Therefore, I would like to see a failure to break above this level during the early part of the London session, which would make me take a bearish bias if the price begins to move down from there. The long-term bearish trend is another reason to be bearish today.
There is nothing important due today concerning the EUR. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Crude Oil Inventories data at 3:30pm London time.
