Key Quotes

“While EUR hit the ‘rebound target’ of 1.0770 as expected (high of 1.0777), the sharp and swift pull-back from the top came as a surprise”.

“Upward momentum has been dented and this pair has likely moved into a consolidation phase and is expected to trade within a 1.0635/1.0780 range”.

“Looking further ahead, the bias is tilted to the upside but 1.0775/80 is acting as a very strong resistance and only a clear break of this level would indicate a move towards 1.0825 has started”.
