EUR/USD Analysis

The price chopped around last Thursday between 1.2400 and 1.2500, which were the two closest levels I had mentioned were worth watching. Then on Friday, the pair shot up after rejecting the support at 1.2400, breaking and closing above the 1.2500 level. Last night there was a bearish bounce off resistance at 1.2562, and the price has been falling steadily since then.

We are forming a triangle and there is a supportive trend line a little above 1.2400 which would be a logical point for a long entry.

There are no high-impact news releases scheduled today that are likely to affect the USD. Regarding the EUR, the president of the European Central Bank will be speaking at 2pm London time. Therefore the New York session is likely to be more volatile for this pair.
