EUR/USD technical perspective

Posted: 12 May 2010 03:04 AM PDT

EUR/USD strong bounce from 1.2600 low, has been capped by the resistance area around 1.2750/60, and pair fell quickly back to levels under 1.2700; for what i can see in the 4 hours charts, indicators are just turning back up far from signals while20 SMA is above current price at the mentioned zone, limiting the upside, so pair really needs to clear that up to attempt to gain more ground today; 1.2790 and 1.2820/30 are next levels to watch to the upside.  First support now lies at 1.2660, so a break under it, likely to push the pair back down, probably to the 1.2620 area. Under today’s low, next supports come at 1.2550 and 1.2515.

Starting the day

Hi everyone, and welcome back! while Euro remains under strong pressure having reached 1.2600 intraday low this European session, the pound rallied strongly after the new UK government was announced, reaching 1.5050 resistance area, only to fell back on BOE inflation report just published almost 100 pips, as CPI is seen around 1.4% in 2 years, under the 2% target; the report also adds more fiscal consolidation to be needed, probably the reason of recent sell. Early data in both economies has been quite positive in average, and while Pound has chances of extending the recovery today, Euro seems quite more limited as market remains bearish on the pair. We have a lot of first line data today, so here is the link to the calendar, I will take a good look at euro now:
