- EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred
- Rise Continues Following Morning Star Pattern
- Harami Formation On H4 Awaiting Confirmation
EUR/USDhas continued its cautious creep higher after the rise of a Morning Star near 1.2620. The bullish reversal signal has received confirmation from a successive up-day, which may herald a retest of 1.2755. Yet amid the ‘messy’ price action that has plagued the pair over recent weeks the potential for further upside follow-through may be limited.

A Harami pattern on the four hour chart should be closely monitored as a potential early reversal signal. The candlestick pattern awaits validation from a successive down-period. This could act as a precursor to a pullback towards the 1.2605 floor.
