EUR/USD Technical Analysis: The 1.1600 figure is the key resistance to break for further advances

  • EUR/USD is in a bull leg as it found support at the 1.1530 key level.
  • EUR/USD is trading above its 50-period simple moving average as the market is trying to break above the 1.1600 figure. The RSI and Stochastic indicators are trading above the 50 line suggesting that the path of least resistance is to the upside. 
  • A break above 1.1600-1.1630 should open the gate to 1.1700 figure. However a bear breakout below 1.1530 should invalidate the bullish bias.
