- EUR/USD bulls are still hanging above the 1.1700 figure as the market has been ranging for the last 10 hours.
- EUR/USD is currently capped by a daily trendline and the daily 50-period simple moving average. The line-in-the-sand seems to be the 1.1730-1.1740 area. A breakout above the level can lead to an acceleration to 1.1790 and potentially open to gates to 1.1851-1.1854 area.
- However, if the market remains contained below 1.1730-1.1740 area, the potential bull trap can lead to a rotation lower to 1.1672 and 1.1640-1.1649 area.
