EUR/USD Recovery Off 61.8% Support Feeble So Far
18 March 2010
The FX Trader's view -
WEEKLY CHART: The reversal in trend at the 76.4% recovery mark saw a steady decline to the 61.8% pullback level around 1.3400, which has provided nice s/term support. But a failure to push through first key resistance (see below) would turn our focus towards the lower 76.4% just under 1.3000.

DAILY CHART: The s/term chart structure had previously started to suggest that bears were getting weary on the approach to 61.8%. However, in the FX Specialist Guide we have been looking at the 23.6% retracement area, at 1.3835, as first key resistance. This needs to be overcome in order to signal a better s/term recovery can be seen. In which case tough resistance would be expected at/below the 1.4216 Dec-09 low. Meanwhile the Mar low and 61.8% level stay vulnerable - note that there is currently an interesting Fibo projection (not shown) that nicely coincides with the 76.4% level just below 1.3000... |
