- EUR/USD gained almost 70 pips on Thursday breaking above the 1.1700 figure ahead of the FOMC meeting minutes at 18:00 GMT.
- EUR/USD bulls are now trying to break above last week’s high at 1.1720 level.
- Additionally, EUR/USD is now about 20 pips away from the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement from the mid-April-May bear move at 1.1730. If bulls breakout above the level it can lead to an acceleration higher towards the 1.1800 figure. On the other hand, failure to break above 1.1720-1.1730 area can lead to a rotation down.
