EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro bull run stays intact as US inflation misses estimates - Approaching fast 1.1600 figure

  • EUR/USD is currently having a reversal up since Monday. Freshly released the US Consumer Price Index Ex Food & Energy year-on-year for September missed expectations at 2.2% versus 2.3% forecast. The data is weakening the USD and giving EUR/USD extra boost.
  • EUR/USD bias remains bullish as the market is now challenging the 1.1600 figure. The next targets are seen near 1.1630 August (8 high key level) and 1.1654 (August 27 high). The RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators remain constructive to the upside. 
  • A bear breakout below 1.1530 would likely invalidate the current bullish bias.

EUR/USD keeps the offered stance just above 1.1700
