EUR USD In Depth
The secondary image shows a positive pattern with the neckline at 1.2065, breaching it will support the pair’s upside move though its full targets reside above the retest level mentioned at 1.2270 -50% correction for the last downside wave- and it might extend further towards 1.2365 the 61.8% correction.
The medium term trend is still bearish and we should observe the pair closely when reaching the retest level at 1.2140; breaching this level will extend the upside correction as aforesaid, while if it holds it will revive the bearishness towards the main targets for the short term wave around 1.1700.
