EUR/USD makes a convincing break above downtrend resistance

Is this the real move? It certainly seems so. EUR/USD is on the move, climbing to a new high of 1.1346, above the previous  resistance line of 1.13 and more importantly above downtrend resistance that capped it many times.

The dovish meeting minutes by the ECB were met with dovish meeting minutes from the Federal Reserve.

Janet Yellen and her colleagues were not really close to raising rates in September and this was before the terrible NFP that came two weeks later.

Debt talks regarding Greece  seem to have seen some concrete proposals, but this is only a background story.

Further levels to watch are: 1.1373 and 1.1460, which is critical resistance. On the downside we have 1.13 and 1.1215.

After taking a short course about forex. Like many forex traders, I've earned a significant share of my knowledge the hard way. Macroeconomics, the impact of news on the ever-moving currency markets and trading psychology have always fascinated me. Before founding Forex Crunch, I've worked as a programmer in various hi-tech companies. I have a B. Sc. in Computer Science from Ben Gurion University. Given this background, forex software has a relatively bigger share in the posts.
