EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro moving fast, sharp reversal up currently retesting 1.1800 area

  • Despite the sharp move lower on the FOMC, EUR/USD is still sticking to the trading range theme. EUR/USD has bounced about 50 pips from the 1.1730 support and is testing the 1.1800 area. 
  • The 1.1730 level has proven to be a strong support and the last four days of consolidation can be seen as a bull flag, therefore a strong breakout above 1.1800-1.1850 can lead to a resumption of EUR/USD bull move while a strong bear breakout below the key 1.1730 support can see the bear trend resuming. 
  • For the time being EUR/USD stays range bound ahead of the European Central Bank rate decision this Thursday which can unlock the status-quo.
