Daily Technical Forecast

Based on the early trade, the support is an uptrending Gann angle at 1.2313 and the resistance is the 50% level at 1.2354.

A sustained move over 1.2354 will signal the presence of buyers. Overtaking this level could drive the EUR/USD into a Gann angle resistance cluster at 1.2385 to 1.2386. Since the main trend is down, we could see sellers on the first test of this resistance. Overtaking it could extend the rally into 1.2401 then 1.2416.

A sustained move under 1.2313 will indicate the presence of sellers. This could lead to a quick test of 1.2300. This is a potential trigger point for an acceleration into 1.2272, followed by 1.2265. The latter is another trigger point for an acceleration into a support cluster at 1.2236 to 1.2235.
