EURUSD

The Euro sits at a critical inflection point, trying to figure out whether it wants to hold up into dips for the start to a resumption of that bullish breakout from back in 2017 that led to a +3 year high earlier this year, or if it wants to keep extending this run of declines. A lot of this will hinge on how the market trades in the sessions ahead. If the major pair can hold up above 1.1215 and push through 1.1500, it sets the stage for a bigger bullish move ahead. If however the market breaks back down below 1.1215, it will open the possibility for the next downside extension to 1.0800.

In this analysis, we take a look at EURUSD each day, highlighting all of the need to knows for anyone looking to extract up to date information on the major levels and relevant trends, both short term and longer-term. The analysis is designed for the trader, investor and even those simply holding Euro or US Dollars, looking for an idea of where they may want to consider making that next conversion.
