- EUR/USD bulls are challenging the main bear trend by threatening to breakout above the 1.1628 key level.
- EUR/USD bulls have taken the lead on the last day of the week. The 50-period simple moving average crossed above the 100 SMA while the 200 SMA is flat. The market did not break below the bull trendline from August 15, all suggesting moderate bullish activity. A sustained bull breakout above 1.1628 would open the gates for this week bull leg to carry on while a failure at the level would see the market trading sideways to down.
- At this point, it is pretty much a 50/50 situation as both bulls and bears have valid arguments. How the market is going to react in the coming hours in the 1.1600-1.1628 zone is going to be key in order to establish a bias.
