The current range could represent an accumulation, a bullish continuation pattern.Still, only making a new higher high activates more gains ahead. The descending pitchfork’s upper median line represents the next major upside target. This stands as a dynamic resistance.A larger growth could be activated only after taking out this upside obstacle. I believe the upside continuation could be invalidated only if the rate makes a new lower low, if it drops and closes below the S1.More By This Author:EUR/USD Price Analysis: Euro Struggling After Overnight LossesUSD/CAD Outlook: Bearish Amid Optimistic Canadian GDPEUR/USD Forecast: Dollar Recovers on Robust US GDP Growth
