EUR/USD Analysis

This pair has been falling hard since the week opened, and surprisingly the fall continued yesterday with no let-up in its strength. At the point of writing the price is just pausing at a confluent point at 1.1073 which is both horizontal support and a month-old trend line which has acted as both resistance and support and several touches. Therefore we may already have made the low of the day and if the first hour after the London open gives a move up with some power it could be a good long opportunity.

Above are two levels that were support and will now probably have flipped to resistance that could give good short opportunities.

Of course we have the FOMC Minutes after the London Close tonight, and this can either move the price directionally very strongly or simply create massive volatility, running stops but going nowhere. For this reason having a trade open at this point is always a gamble to some extent so do protect any trade (ideally by taking partial profit) before it happens. However trades off any of the key levels could be pushed into big profit by the FOMC so it is still worth trying to get in.

EURUSD 52015

There will be a release of U.S. FOMC Meeting Minutes at 7pm London time.
