Technical Analysis & Trade Setup on Eurusd

Although the Eurusd is not a pair that I frequently trade, it is the day trading currency pair of choice for many Forex traders. This universally appealing currency pair has good reason behind its popularity. It does not move in wild swings the way many others do, and can be somewhat more predictable.

The weekly timeframe below displays two red horizontal lines. These lines mark the 2008 range in which the market traded, between1.0320 and .9820. If the current bearish momentum continues, then it would not be unreasonable to expect a continued run down to further support levels. The first significant level of support would be 1.0000, followed by the bottom of the old range at .9820. It is worth bearing in mind though, that this could possibly be the right tip of a weekly bullish reversal setting up. Read more »
