7/22/2010 – EUR/USD – Price action on EUR/USD (a 4-hour chart of which is shown) as of Thursday (7/22/2010) has continued its climb after pulling back yesterday to just above 1.2700. As of Thursday morning New York session, price tentatively broke out above resistance at 1.2900 and could now potentially be targeting further upside. Since the long-term low in early June, price action has displayed consistently higher lows and higher highs, and this uptrend accelerated after the late June low was hit. Within this past week, price attempted a break above the 1.3000 psychological figure, but could not muster the bullishness to stay above it. If another attempt at a 1.3000 breach takes place, key upside resistance on such a bullish move resides in the significant 1.3100 price region. To the downside, if price is unable to stay afloat above 1.2900, key support continues to reside around the key 1.2700 price region.
