EUR/USD Analysis

I forecast yesterday that if the price was able to break through 1.0766 cleanly, the price should continue downwards towards 1.0650. There was such a clean break quite early in the London session that then produced a fairly quick fall down to an area close to 1.0700, but the price then turned around before a New York session with choppy swings both ways.

The net result is that this area has been messed around too much now to be useful as support or resistance, and the focus should now switch to the earlier support just above 1.0800. This would be a likely area for the price to turn bearish today.

There is some local support at around 1.0700 and a little below it, but the next major support should be at around 1.0630. The half number just above it at 1.0650 might also be hard to crack.
