Strategy: Short at 1.2595, Targeting 1.2364
We re-entered short EURUSD at 1.2595 expecting a corrective bounce in the wake of the EU leaders’ summit to yield back to the dominant trend. Prices have now met our initial objective with a close below 1.2442 to test the second soft target at 1.2364. The pair also appears to have completed a Triangle pattern, a setup indicative of bearish continuation in this scenario. We will continue to holding short, looking for either a close below 1.2364 or a bounce to retest the Triangle bottom to consider adding to the position. A stop-loss will be triggered on a daily close above 1.2746.
