TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
We will trade between 1.2000-1.2220 before Thursday’s ECB meeting. The corrective A-B-C pattern suggests 1.2000 is pivotal.
The back-to-back two-week decline seems to have changed the sentiment. A move below 1.2000 could confirm the reversal pattern, which is likely to trigger more weakness in the short term. But any fall below 1.2000 levels doesn’t change our higher EUR theme. For all the longs, 1.1900/1.1880 is the stop loss. If the price is moving higher, the key resistance levels to watch out are 1.2215 and 1.2285.
It is important to always keep in mind the risks involved in trading with leveraged instruments.
