EUR/USD Analysis

This pair spiked upwards dramatically during the ECB’s statement last Thursday, before falling back dramatically to where it was and then continuing lower than that. The technical result of this has been to wipe out the level at 1.1340, but we have a new key level at 1.1270 which can be seen as recently pivotal within the hourly chart below.

Current price action suggests that the price is going to rise and quite possibly test 1.1270, especially if the German data due to be released soon is positive.

EURUSD

 Regarding the EUR, there will be a release of German IFO Business Climate data at 9am London time. There is nothing due concerning the USD.
