EUR/USD Analysis
Towards the end of last week the market was waiting for bad news from the Euro zone that was expected to make the Euro drop and the price of this pair fall. Although there was no announcement of an agreement between Greece and the ECB, there was a strong rumour of a deal being cooked up behind the scenes, and this was actually enough to make this pair break upwards past resistance at 1.1350. Since then, we have also broken out above the bearish channel.
Although the picture is still very uncertain and future direction is likely to be strongly news-driven, this paints a more bullish picture, with 1.1350 now positioned to possibly act as support. There is a good flipped area above that should provide resistance at around 1.1532.
There are no high-impact data releases scheduled for today concerning the USD. It is a public holiday in the USA. However it is an important day for the Eurozone as there are Euro group meetings all day today. There may be very high-impact news that could cause a strong movement and some volatility.
