EURUSD – Bullish threat
A high-level consolidation Monday to match the 1.1490 peak, then to push through this level and psychological/option target at 1.1500 overnight, reinforcing the Friday rebound and maintaining bullish pressures into Tuesday.
Moreover, we still see a bullish intermediate-term outlook into July.
For Today:
l We see an upside bias through 1.1537 for 1.1555; break here aims for a key peak at 1.1616.
l But below 1.1473 opens risk down to 1.1409.
Intermediate-term Outlook – Upside Risks:
l Whilst above 1.1107, we see a positive tone with the bullish threat to 1.1366.
l Above here targets 1.1428/47, 1.1616 and 1.1714.
What Changes This? Below 1.1107 signals a neutral tone, only shifting negative below 1.0837.
