Trading Setups / Chart in Focus:
EURUSD
The EURUSD closed today marginally lower after rejecting higher prices intra-day. The market attempted to move into the 8 day EMA resistance level but encountered selling into the New York close. We would look to sell on any rotations higher into resistance, watching the 1hr, 4hr and daily chart for sell signals. Today’s bar qualifies as a pin bar but it’s not really a very decisive one as the tail is not protruding, still, if the low breaks we could see this downward move accelerate.
