EUR/USD (1.2078) No change in view, market is still trading sideways between 1.2040 & 1.2175. Both intraday and daily studies are slightly negative for the pair however the current lack of follow through on the downside calls for caution. On the upside, a break above 1.2180 would see further upside targeting 1.2235 first. On the downside, a break below 1.2040 would see further weakness towards 1.2005 & 1.1925. Advice is to trade the current range for now. We stand aside.
