EURUSD

The EUR/USD broke above the resistance level (dotted red) of the consolidation pattern. There could be a potential uptrend continuation towards the 78.6% Fibonacci level of wave 2 (green) but the 1.10 even level could act as a resistance level.

Today the Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) and unemployment figures will be released in the United States, which will typically have a large impact on the volatility of price movement before, during and after the news event.
