Talking Points:

• EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Flat
• Support: 1.1311, 1.1096, 1.0958
• Resistance:1.1444, 1.1659, 1.1832

The Euro may be readying to turn upward against the US Dollar after producing a bullish Morning Star candlestick pattern. Near-term resistance is at 1.1444, the intersection of the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement and a falling trend line, with a break above that on a daily closing basis targeting the 38.2% level at 1.1659. Alternatively, a turn below the 14.6% Fib at 1.1311 clears the way for a test of the January 26 low at 1.1096.

We expect any on-coming EURUSD strength to be corrective, in line with our long-term outlook. With that in mind, we will treat upside momentum as an opportunity to enter short at a more attractive level and remain on the sidelines in the interim.
