Forecast for 22nd February 2013
Spot Euro
EURUSD broke the 7 month uptrend line support at 1.3245 for a test of 1.3187/83 Fibonacci support & bounced just below at 1.3161. Today we expect a recovery with targets of 1.3246 & then 1.3295/1.3310. This is tough resistance & may cap the bounce. However if we see further strength look for 1.3370/80 which we see as a very good selling opportunity with a stop above 1.3440.
Support at 1.3180/60. Again a chance of a bounce but a break lower would then target the 100 day & 21 week moving average at 1.3120. failure here should find good support at 1.3060/40.
