Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: EUR/USD – Buy at 1.2945

Current breach of indicated resistance at 1.2968-71 confirms low has been formed at 1.2804 earlier this week and bullishness is seen for retracement of recent decline from 1.3172 to 1.3000, then towards 1.3042-48 (100% projection of 1.2804-1.2968 measuring from 1.2878 and previous resistance) but reckon near term overbought condition would limit upside to 1.3075-85 and price should falter below 1.3143 (1.618 times projection).

Trade Idea: EUR/GBP – Buy at 0.7995

As the single currency has continued to move higher after brief pullback, adding credence to our view that the rise from 0.7923 (last week’s low) is still in progress and bullishness remains for further gain to 0.8060, above there would suggest the fall from 0.8114 has ended and bring subsequent rise to 0.8080 and possibly 0.8100 but as broad outlook is consolidative, reckon said resistance at 0.8114 would hold from here, bring retreat later.
