EURUSD: 1.1195
The Euro climbed off its early lows of 1.1138, in choppy trade, to finish just under 15 June highs of 1.1201, with the dollar under broad pressure after the release of some soft US housing data, taking some of the steam out of the upbeat outlook from the Fed in the FOMC statement.
With the 4 hour momentum indicators looking a little more supportive, for the coming session, we could see a squeeze above 1.1200 and on towards 1.1230 and possibly to 1.1250.
On the downside, with the daily momentum indicators still looking negative further losses look likely at some stage. Minor support should now arrive at 1.1165, ahead of last week’s lows at just above 1.1130. Beyond there would allow a move to 1.1100/10 and possibly to 1.1075 and 1.1015 although this looks to have been delayed for now.
While the dailies point lower, selling rallies towards 1.1220, with a SL placed above 1.1255 seems to be the plan although with little data due today it may be a fairly quiet session.
