EUR/USD Highlights:
EUR/USD has generally been a choppy mess of price action, but given the rally that came prior to this development, this is a good thing. Since the 2018 peak all rallies have been met with quick turnarounds that led to new cycle lows. But the change in character suggests another rally is brewing.
A breakout above 11422 will have the Euro firmly above the 2018 trend-line and ready to take on the March coronavirus spike-high at 11495. Given the change in character and breaking of the trend-line there appears to be a good chance that level won’t hold as resistance, at least not for long.
A break above there would have a major long-term trend-line in play from the 2008 high, with the line crossing over the 2011, 2014, and 2018 highs. This would be yet another massive test of the long-term downtrend.
For now, we will focus on the likelihood of a boost higher in the short-term, and then worry about what EUR/USD will do in the event it tests the 2008 trend-line. A break below 11168 will be needed to turn the picture back towards the downside.
