EURUSD Daily Chart
Traders monitoring intraday levels of consolidation should note that range resistance for the EUR/USD is found at the R3 Camarilla pivot depicted below at a price of 1.1109. If prices continue to trade below this value, traders may look for the EUR/USD to retest values of support. The pivot range today measures 44 pips, which places the S3 pivot at a price of 1.1066.
In the event that prices break from this range, bullish breakouts begin at the R4 pivot at a price of 1.1131. A move through this value opens the EUR/USD to continue trading high towards the previously mentioned value of resistance at 1.1186. Alternatively, today’s S4 pivot is found at 1.1045. A move through this pivot places the EUR/USD near the daily ascending line of support. A bearish breakout in this scenario, may suggest a resumption of the pairs standing downtrend.
