EURUSD
Last Friday’s positive close above daily 20SMA, maintains positive near-term tone, with price action trading in prolonged consolidation, being for now capped under initial barrier at 1.2500. Positive weekly close also favors further upside, as bounce from 1.2360 higher base, keeps pivotal 1.2500/30 points in focus and near-term price action trading in the upper part of 1.2360/1.2493 congestion. Eventual break above 1.2530, to open key near-term barrier at 1.2597, 19 Nov high and signal stronger recovery on a break. However, daily studies are still weak and suggest further consolidation, while 1.25 barrier caps. Key near-term support lies at 1.2360 and break here expected to turn near-term picture bearish.
