EUR/USD: Meeting Resistance From Monthly Pivot

 | Apr 20, 2015 05:27AM ET


The EUR/USD pair has been rising in an up-move which has met resistance from the monthly pivot.


A break above the 1.0848 highs, that would confirm a break above the monthly pivot and move higher.


The range highs at 1.1030 provide a possible eventual target for the pair.


Overall it is oscillating in what appears to be a sideways consolidation above a long-term major channel line drawn on the monthly chart.


It has been in a down-trend since April 2014 but has now met quite formidable support from the long-term lower channel line, which has brought into question the dominance pf the previous down-trend, although a full-blown reversal isn't yet a reality.
