Quick Euro Update


The hourly EUR/USD chart shows a bearish divergence between price and the RSI at the recent high.  The big selloff immediately afterward confirms the divergence which signals a top is in place.  The outlook for the euro moving forward is very bearish.

How a Simple Line Can Improve Your Trading Success



Today's big bearish candlestick in the euro signals the larger downtrend has resumed as long as today's losses are not completely reversed tomorrow.  I was cautious on the rally before since it was so oversold prior to that, and the reversal higher looked like it might have legs and run higher for a while.  Now it looks like the euro is headed lower in the short term, although it's probably a wave 5 at some degree so I would still be mildly cautious and not be too aggressively short at the moment.  The daily charts are showing a bullish divergence building, but it might not materialize in a sustained rally for quite a long time.  Regardless, the short term is bearish so I added short near 1.2700, but not nearly a full position.  I still have plenty of cash to add short if it rallies from here.  Any rally should be capped shy of 1.2824.
