EUR Technical Outlook: EUR/USD Short-term Chart Setting Euro Up for a Move
The Euro is putting in a technical formation on the 4-hr chart (can drop down to the 1-hr time-frame) that could set into motion a move here very shortly. The proximity of price to the apex of the wedge implies a move at any time.
Within the context of the uptrend off the late March low the upside is favored as the pattern acts as a continuation-style sequence. A break out of the wedge and above 11919 should do the trick for getting things moving higher again.
On the top-side, the first meaningful level to watch is around the 11990-mark. There lies a low and a pair of highs created during March. If price can approach and break through with momentum, then a rally is possible towards the January trend-line over 12100.
If, however, we see a stalling or worse, a rejection at resistance, then the outlook from there will likely need to neutralize.
On the flip-side a breakdown out of the wedge along with 11871 is seen as likely sending EUR/USD lower. With that in mind, we do want to wait for confirmation either way before running too strongly with a trading bias.
