Expected Continuation of Upward Correction
|Previous:
The euro/dollar on Tuesday closed slightly up. Support for the pair came from a weakening dollar. Traders are continuing to analyse the consequences of Brexit. The euro closed at 1.1063 where it still sits trading.
Market Expectations:
Market participants are waiting for news from the EU leaders summit taking place in Brussels. News is slow and what there is isn’t enough to have a real effect on the market. Whilst there’s no decision made regarding the UK, I’ll risk saying the euro will again strengthen, this time to 1.1123.
Day’s News (EET):
-
9:00, German consumer confidence from Gfk for June. UK housing price index for June from Nationwide;

Technical Analysis:
Intraday forecast: minimum: 1.1049 (current Asian), maximum: 1.1123, close: 1.1095.
Euro/dollar rate on the hourly.
The euro/dollar has restored to the 112th degree and from there a downward correction followed. Above the balance line a triangle in a triangle is forming. I expect the price to exit upwards from there. I fully understand that the fluctuations up and down will persist whilst the situation with the UK still hangs in the balance. However, I reckon we’re to see an upwards movement of the euro/dollar as part of a correction after Friday, 24th June’s fall. My forecast for growth is to cancel with a close of the hourly candle below 1.1030.
