Daily Technical Forecast

Based on the early price action, the directio of the EUR/USD the rest of the session is likley to be determined by trader reaction to the downtrending Gann angle at 1.2326.

A sustained move over 1.2326 will indicate the presence of buyers. If this move generates enough upside momentum, we could see a rally into 1.2354. This is another potential trigger point for a rally into the next downtrending Gann angle at 1.2386.

A sustained move under 1.2300 will signal the presence of sellers. This level is a potential trigger point for an acceleration into a potential support cluster at 1.2263 to 1.2265. Even though the trend will turn down on a move through 1.2272, buyers could still step in on a test of the support cluster.

For more conservative traders, look for an upside bias to develop on a sustained move over 1.2326 and for a downside bias to develop on a sustained move under 1.2300.
