EUR/USD jumped 0.58% on Monday and looks set to rise further with the daily chart indicator turning bullish for the first in a month.

The MACD histogram, an indicator used to identify trend strength and trend changes, has crossed above zero, signaling a bearish-to-bullish trend change.

The 14-day relative strength index is also reporting bullish conditions with an above-50 print.

The pair, therefore, appears on track to violate resistance at 1.1097 (Nov. 21 high). That would invalidate the bearish lower highs setup and confirm a double bottom breakout, opening the doors to 1.2 (target as per the measured move method).

On the downside, the Nov. 29 low of 1.0981 is the level to beat for sellers. At press time, the pair is trading at 1.1075, representing little change on the day.

EUR/USD accelerates losses, focus is on 1.1800

EUR/USD’s selling pressure is gathering pace now, opening the door to a potential test of the key 1.1800 region sooner rather than later. The pair’s pullback comes on the back of marked gains in the US Dollar following US data releases and the publication of the FOMC Minutes later in the day.

GBP/USD turns negative near 1.3540

Mixed UK inflation data no gamechanger for the Bank of England
