EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Triangle Breakout confirmed as EUR/USD is nearing 1.1700 figure – Game on for bulls

  • EUR/USD bear trend is on hold since mid-August when EUR/USD found a floor at 1.1300 figure.
  • EUR/USD broke from the triangle compression pattern as it is trading above its 50, 100 and 200-period simple moving averages, which is bullish.  The RSI, MACD and Stochastics are all bullishly configured.  
  • The next target is 1.1700 followed by 1.1750 (July resistance). This last one can be a tough one to break above since it was strong resistance this summer. After it comes the 1.1800 figure resistance.
  • Conversely, a bear breakout below 1.1530 would be seen as a strong bearish signal and would invalidate the bullish bias.
