EUR / USD – Finding Some Temporary Relief at 1.30

EUR / USD – Finding Some Temporary Relief at 1.30

The last week has seen the Euro meet significant selling pressure near the resistance level around 1.3160 and move away steadily. In a positive sign, the Euro hasn’t collapsed and completely given up on pushing higher however it has recently moved back through the 1.31 level and has been quite close to 1.30 to start this week. The Euro has shown some relatively bearish signs over the last month or so since retracing from its highs near 1.32, and it has been the 1.28 level that has emerged as the major level in the last month.

In the last couple of weeks the Euro has rallied well and been able to push back off the support level at 1.28 and up towards 1.30 and then some, however the resistance level near 1.3160 has stood firm and fended off advances. The 1.28 level still remains a significant level and the Euro is likely to test this level again should it continue to ease off from the resistance level above 1.3150 and fall below 1.30.
