A complex corrective pattern is underway, since the 1.5283 local bottom and we expect a little bit more ranging in the 1.5571-1.5412 zone , before breaking upwards with a minimum target at 1.5710. Intraday expect swing volatility below 1.5534 and above 1.5431.
Today's strategy: Trade the range 1.5534-1.5431 and be ready to reverse and go long on a break of the 1.5571 resistance with a target at 1.5712.

Daily Analysis
16 May 2008
Current level - 104.31


The pair is in a corrective uptrend from the 95.75 short-term bottom. Technical indicators are rising slowly and the upmove is dynamically supported at 102.36. The inner structure of the rise is by all means a corrective one, so from a larger point of view the overall downtrend from 124.14 is not over yet.

The pair has tested the dynamic resistance at 105.44 and is downtrending nicely since that level. We expect to  see a test of the 103.96 support and a rebound to 104.39 to follow, before the next leg downwards to 103.12.
Today' strategy: Attempt shorts at 104.42 with a stop above 104.92 and a target at 103.12.

New low was reached at 1.9374, few pips above the important 1.9367 support. We still think, that last week's activity is a broad test of the 1.9338-67 support and having in mind the high (weekly) frame, that it is derived from, it will take more time to be worked out. Be patient and wait for a break either below 1.9338 or above 1.9633 to determine the general direction of next month's trades. 
Today's strategy : Buy on current levels, adding at 1.9442 (if seen), with a risk limit below 1.9404 and a target at 1.9567.
