SignalTrader.com - EUR/USD Daily Technical Outlook - Apr 28, 2011
EUR/USD set a fresh 5-month high earlier today after the historical press conference of the FOMC yesterday.
From the fundamental point of view we think that the weakness of the USD is about to end. From the technical point of view we can see that the pair is way overbought.
On the Daily chart, the pair successfully reached the top band of the upward channel at 1.4883 before retreating 40 pips to its…

In the last 2 days, EUR/USD tumbled more than 300 pips just to recover more than half of the loss, gaining more than 200 from the bottom. This technical behavior may signal one of the two: either the bearish short term momentum was a clear first sign of a medium term trend reversal or it was a psychological selloff, providing a good opportunity to go long. Should it is real – then the current rebound of the pair is…

Signal Trader - EUR/USD Daily Outlook, Apr 6, 2011
Yesterday, we marked the area between 1.417 and 1.419 as a good area to enter long positions. There was a massive attempt yesterday by the bears, which was blocked at around 1.415, far enough from our stop loss. The bulls won that battle and the price soared toward 1.428. We are closing half of our long positions at the current level of 1.427. The target for the second half is at around 1.431. Stop loss for the…

EUR/USD is starting the trading week on an important price level. On Friday, once again, the bears were defeated by the bulls, which stood at the 1.404-1.406 level and blocked any break down attempt. The trend reversed and the rally was fueled by massive short covering pushing the pair to close near 5-month high.

From the technical aspect – we see a good long opportunity at these price levels.

During the Asian session, EUR/USD touched the lower band of the upward channel and bounced back toward 1.4075.
Although the short term downward momentum is still alive, we are very cautious with taking short positions.
The lower band of the channel, as well as the 1.403-1.404 support area, are inviting us to take a short term long positions, with a tight stop. However, we will wait for a pull back before…

As we predicted yesterday, the downward momentum continued and accelerated. EUR/USD rebound attempts were blocked exactly at the resistance area we mentioned of 1.4215. Once again, the RSI 70 level blocked the bullish momentum and after hovering around 1.42 the pair lost 150 pips. The pair is very close now to the next support of 1.404-1.405. Therefore, we just took profits at 1.4055 and we are waiting for either…

The upward momentum, which accelerated by breaking above 1.42, was blocked at the resistance area of 1.425. The pair consolidated at 1.423-1.424 and finally bounced toward 1.415.
Once again, the 70 level of the daily RSI, which indicates entering overbought levels, was not breakable.
In the last 3 times such occurred, the pair lost 200-300 pips (we marked these occasions on the Daily chart). Thus - a…

Yesterday, EUR/USD broke above the resistance of 1.42. This is a significant Bullish sign and was a signal to enter long positions.
Its short term bias is Bullish. The immediate target is the 14-month high of 1.4281.
A break above 1.428 will be another bullish sign, which will make the target for the pair at 1.45.
However, the area between 1.426 and 1.428 is full with resistances. Therefore – some of the profits should be taken at that… Continue

Its short term bias is Bullish. However, the RSI on the Daily chart is approaching overbought level.
