Forex Trade Setups Commentary: EURUSD and AUDUSD reject lower prices, 26th October 2011

Trading Setups / Chart in Focus:

EURUSD

The EURUSD closed today unchanged after first creating a false-break of resistance near 1.3950 and then moving lower only to reject support near the 8 day EMA and form a pin bar. If price continues its upward track we could see a break above 1.3950 and a larger push higher into the next resistance near 1.4100.

AUDUSD

The AUDUSD moved into the 8 day EMA support level today and rejected this level forming a pin bar. We would have liked to see a bullish close on this pin, so we would wait for a break of the high of the pin bar before considering a long. Otherwise, we will wait for a rotation lower and watch the 21 day EMA for support.
