EUR/USD looked bad at last week's close as a strong bid in the USD and tariff worries drove another resistance hit at the 1.0523 level in the pair.
But this week has been a far different tone and for today the pair is up more than one percent as a strong breakout has taken-over.
The complication at this point is area on the chart, as 1.0611 is a confluent area of Fibonacci levels. I had highlighted this level in this space a couple of EUR/USD setups ago, as that price is the 38.2% retracement of both the 2021-2022 major move, and the 38.2% retracement of the bounce from the 2022 low up to the 2023 high (which, itself, was a 61.8% retracement of the broader 2021-2022 move).
This doesn't necessarily mean that the trend is over but it does make for complication if looking to chase the pair higher. So, for traders looking to establish long exposure, one option is waiting for a pullback, and looking to see if support shows at prior resistance. And given the traffic that took place in the 1.0523-1.0533 area, or perhaps even the 1.0500 psychological level, there's a couple of obvious areas to look for that scenario to work through. - js
