EUR/USD Analysis
I wrote yesterday the picture was looking more bearish, technically dominated by the bearish trend lines which are still shown in the price chart below.
I was ready to take a bearish bias if the price was below 1.1390 at 9am London time. It was, and the price fell further over the day, so this was a good call.
The technical picture remains the same and the Dollar is strong everywhere, so there are good reasons to remain bearish. However, the Bank of England is giving its monthly policy release later today which could push the Euro around in unexpected directions. The support level below at 1.1350 may also be stronger than the other levels reached yesterday.
I would take a bearish bias if the price is at or below 1.1345 at 9am London time today.
There is nothing of high importance due today regarding either the EUR or the USD.
