- Euro bulls broke above 1.1745 Monday’s high in early European trade and had a slow grind higher near the 1.1800 handle.
- However, EUR/USD is in a wedge formation suggesting that the bull trend might be about to take a breather in the short-term. In fact, the stochastics and MACD indicators on the 15-minute time-frame have not confirmed the new high at 1.1196.
- If bulls cannot break above 1.1800 then it is reasonable to expect a pullback towards the 1.1745 Monday’s high and possibly to the 1.1700 handle if bears manage to gather some steam.
