EUR/USD Analysis

There is no real change to the technical picture. Support and resistance are well defined, and in the absence of any major news events due today are likely to hold. It can be seen that not only has the support at 1.1234 held but so also has the resistance at 1.1302. Overall this pair can be said to have a small bullish bias, but trades in both directions can be taken. Another long off a retest and rejection of 1.1234 would probably the best set-up to hope for.

EURUSD

There is nothing due today regarding either the EUR or the USD.
