The Euro initially shot higher during the course of the week but gave back the gains as we approached the 1.22 handle.

The Euro initially rallied during the course of the week but gave back the early gains to turn around and show a less than enthusiastic candlestick. That being said though, the market has seen a parabolic move to the upside so it should not be a huge surprise that we have given back a bit. At this point, I think that a lot of traders will be looking for an opportunity to pick up value on a drop in value. Perhaps we would find a lot of interest near the 1.20 handle which of course is a huge round figure.

Underneath there, the 1.18 level is an area of interest as well, but quite frankly I do not think we get there. While we have seen a massive turnaround during the week, the reality is that the monthly candlestick is going to end up being very bullish, and therefore I think it is the most important thing to pay attention to, the market has continued to go higher over the longer term. Yes, there has been a significant pullback from the 1.23 handle but that should not be a huge surprise after the massive surge higher.

The US dollar continues to suffer at the hands of stimulus and the “reflation trade”, so I think eventually we do get a turnaround and that this market goes much higher. With all this being said, a little bit of patience and perhaps drilling down on a daily or even four hour chart might give you an idea as when to enter, but the trend on the weekly chart is still higher.
