Trading Setups / Chart in Focus:
EURUSD
The EURUSD tried to break free from its recent trading range today but could not close above resistance. We can see a small false-break occurred today, however, the 8 / 21 day EMAs are diverging to the upside and price seems to be slowly grinding higher. We will wait and see what happens and watch for any price action developing after a strong breakout, should one occur.
AUDUSD
The AUDUSD broke and closed above 1.0600 resistance today, indicating that price is seeing some sustained buying pressure. Also, the daily 8 / 21 EMAs have crossed higher; further indicating that momentum is becoming more bullish. Let’s wait and see what develops over the next 24hrs.
