EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Supported at 1.1530 - Capped at 1.1600 - Breakout Mode

  • EUR/USD main bear trend has been halted in mid-August. 
  • EUR/USD is currently consolidating the August rally in a triangle compression pattern (blue lines) with 1.1530 as key support for bulls. The 1.1600 level has been tough to breakout above since the start of the week. EUR/USD is also finding some decent support at the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) on the 4-hour time frame while the 100 SMA is trading above the 200 SMA which is considered a rather bullish clue. 
  • However, EUR/USD is trapped in a tight trading range between 1.1530 and 1.1600 and a strong directional breakout is needed above/below those levels in order to establish a clearer bias.
