The EUR/USD currency pair
Technical indicators of the currency pair:
Prev Open: 1.2088
Prev Close: 1.2125
% chg. over the last day: +0.30%
The sellers could not hold the 1.2088 resistance level, which was impulsively broken by the FOMC news. The uptrend remains bullish. The price is above the moving average, and the growing MACD is in a positive area. There are no signs of a reversal at the moment.
Trading recommendations
Support levels: 1.2088, 1.2049, 1.1994, 1.1957
Resistance levels: 1.2176, 1.2212, 1.2243
The best strategy for the EUR/USD pair is to look for buying from the nearest support levels. The price can pull back to the broken level of 1.2088, which will act as support. Buyers should not let the price go below 1.2088 in order to maintain the upward momentum.
Alternative scenario: if the price breaks down through the 1.2088 level and holds below, with a high probability, the price can go down to 1.2049, with a potential to start a local downtrend correction
