EUR/USD Analysis

As expected and forecast yesterday, the London session saw a short-term move upwards. Nothing of any real technical significance has happened, so the analysis is essentially the same and the same signals are on the table today. Today is also likely to be another quiet day, and in fact the week before Friday or Thursday is also likely to be quiet as we have the US non-farm payroll data release at the end of the week. The days leading up to this event are usually quiet as the market awaits the news.

As we are so far from the levels of interest at 1.3650 and 1.3878, and as trading is likely to be quiet today, I am looking for touch trades at either level, although we are unlikely to get to either level.

It is still too early to be interested at the support zone below us which begins at 1.3715, but if we do not get down there it should be worth looking at tomorrow, especially as it is becoming very confluent with a bullish trend line.

The trend line just above us will probably soon be deleted from my chart. I do not expect it to hold but it has not been used up fully just yet, perhaps.

A candlestick analysis of the higher time frames is bearish, and the daily chart is suggesting we will probably just chop around sideways quite weakly today.

EURUSD Signal 4114

Today there is no EUR-related high impact data or news scheduled for release. Later on 3pm London time there will be the ISM Manufacturing PMI data pertaining to the USD. It is likely to be another fairly quiet day for this pair.
