EUR/USD Analysis

The chart below shows that a bullish Quasimodo pattern has formed based on the 1.0350 – 1.0372 area, and this produced a very sharp spike up at the end of last week which was an Asian session minor “flash crash”. The price has sold off from the highs and looks to be on its way down again as we approach the opening of the London session. There is a long-term bearish trend so following any bearish momentum would seem to be a good tactic. The support at 1.0418 may be an obstacle but the levels below look likely to be stronger.

Above, there is a wide-open space all the way to 1.0589.

EURUSD

There is nothing due today regarding the EUR. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of ISM Manufacturing PMI data at 3pm London time.
