EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro bulls looking for a breakout above 1.1630 strong resistance

  • EUR/USD is trading in a bull leg above its 50-period simple moving average on the 4-hour chart.
  • EUR/USD is holding above 1.1530 for the third consecutive day. The bulls are challenging the 100 SMA as the market is trading in a tight 30 pip range below the 1.1600 figure. The RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators are constructive for more gains. The 1.1600-1.1630 resistance might be hard to break but if it does  the bull run might accelerate to 1.1700 figure.  
  • On the flip side, a bear breakout below 1.1530 would likely invalidate the current bullish bias.
