EUR/USD Approaches 1.2500 Ceiling With A Piercing Line In Its Wake

Talking Points

EUR/USD’s recent rebound has produced a Piercing Line pattern, which awaits confirmation from a successive up-period to be confirmed. Given the presence of a short-term downtrend and the proximity to the nearby 1.2500 ceiling, a further recovery may prove difficult. A resumption of its downward trajectory would likely see buying interest renewed at the 1.2360 floor.
