DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK on Major EUR/USD
Update Time: 22 Apr 2015 01:20 GMT
EUR/USD - 1.0727
Although euro's rebound from yesterday's low at 1.0660 (Europe) to 1.0782 signals pullback from last Friday's high of 1.0849 has ended there and choppy trading with upside bias would be seen.
Break of this resistance needed to confirm the erratic rise from last Monday's 4-week trough at 1.0521 to retrace decline from March's peak at 1.1062 has resumed and yield further gain towards 1.0890/00.
On the downside, below 1.0660 would indicate a top is made instead and shift risk to downside for weakness to 1.0625 but support at 1.0571 should hold.
