. EUR/USD - 1.0826.. Despite opening lower to a fresh 12-year trough of 1.0457 in NZ last Mon, euro rebounded to 1.0651 on Tue n 'jumped' to as high as 1.1062 on Wed after FOMC statements n Fed chair Yellen's dovish comments but only to tank to 1.0613 the next day n then bounced back strongly to 1.0882 Fri.
. Looking at the daily chart, euro's rally to 1.1062 (Reuters) last Wed (the biggest 1-day gain since 2000) confirms recent strg downtrend has indeed formed a low at 1.0457, as this lvl was accompanied by 'bullish convergences' on the hourly indicators. The subsequent selloff to 1.0613 n then strg rebound fm there suggests aforesaid volatile price action fm 1.1062 may well unfold into a 'triangle'. If this scenario holds true, one can buy the euro on dips in anticipation of subsequent rebound (c-leg upmove) but profit shud be taken on upmove as abv 1.1062 needed to turn outlook bullish for a stronger correction twd 1.1264 (being a minimum' 38.2% r of 1.2570-1.0457). On the downside, only a daily close below 1.0580 wud abort bullish bias on euro n risk weakness twd 1.0457.
. Today, as current price is trading abv the 21-hr & 55-hr emas, buying the single currency on dips is recommended but upside shud falter below 1.1000.
