Euro

Still trading in the defined down trend channel that it has been in for more than a month. Tried to break above that falling resistance line yesterday, but failed and closed at the lows for the day, which is a bearish price action. Key overhead resistance is coming in at 1.2734 today, so bearish momentum intact below this level. The support points to watch for today are yesterday’s low of 1.2566 and last week’s low of 1.2379. Also have a rising support from the October low coming in at 1.2408 today.

Support: 1.2415 (rising sup), 1.2379 (last week’s low), 1.2323 (January 2006 high)

Resistance: 1.2694 (falling resistance), 1.2789 (21 day EMA), 1.3295 (30 Oct high)

Euro

240 min – Rising support at 1.2415 and falling resistance at 1.2694 that are the key levels for now.

The break out above 1.5100 resistance did test the falling resistance at 1.5214 as outlined in yesterday’s report.

Key support remains the 1.4550 level, last week’s low.
