EUR/USD - Forex Technical Take

Written by Barry Dumas | 16 Oct 2017

Technical Take:

If we take a look at the daily chart of the EUR/USD cross we can see a head and shoulders pattern forming. As the dollar index rises in value we can see the EUR/USD move lower as the dollar strength increases against the EUR.

The head and shoulders pattern is currently in formation and has not completed and given a signal to place the trade. The more adventures trader will start trading as the pattern nears completion but I will only trade as soon as the price closes below the neckline.

Trade Summary:

  • DIRECTION: SELL (SHORT)
  • ENTRY: 1.1638
  • STOP: 1.1880
  • TARGET PRICE 1: 1.1479
  • TARGET PRICE 2: 1.13.36
