- EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Short at1.3644
- Support: 1.2783, 1.2718, 1.2653
- Resistance:1.2864, 1.2913, 1.2994
The Euro slid to the lowest level in nearly 15 months against the US Dollar, with sellers now aiming below the 1.28 figure. Near-term support is at 1.2783, the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion, with a break beneath that on a daily closing basis exposing the 50% level at 1.2718. Alternatively, turn above the 23.6% Fib at 1.2864 clears the way for a challenge of the 14.6% expansion at 1.2913.
We sold EURUSD at 1.3644 in line with our long-term fundamental outlook and have since booked profit on half of the position. The rest remains open to capture any further downside momentum with a stop-loss at 1.3583, our initial objective.
