Talking Points
- EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred
- Dark Cloud Cover warning of a bearish reversal
- Caution suggested when looking at trading a correction
A Dark Cloud Cover formation on the EUR/USD daily chart has emerged near the psychologically-significant 1.3900 handle. While the pattern is a bearish reversal signal, caution is suggested when looking to trade a correction for the pair, given a Shooting Star candle was seemingly shrugged off last week.

Drilling down to the four hour timeframe; buyers appear to be supporting prices in intraday trade at the 1.3850 mark. Signs of a bullish reversal signal remain absent and a downside break would likely open up the next definite level of support at 1.3710.
