EUR/USD Analysis
The bullishness ended abruptly last Thursday after the 1.2500 area acted as resistance in confluence with the bearish triangular trend line to push the price down again. This move down was not really able to get beyond the support 1.2442, although this support has now been muddied.
We are still within a triangle with a descending bearish trend line that has been forming over the past several weeks. That trend line is still confluent with the resistant area at around 1.2500. The interesting feature is the fairly widely spaced double bottom we have just above 1.2350. We should remember that we are approaching an area that has historically acted as long-term support for this pair, so if the downwards trend ends, maybe there will be a chance for a 2,000 pip long trade. That is something to keep in mind if you like trading long-term.
