ANALYSIS CONCLUSION
>>>> Generally the rise in the U.S. inflation should be negative for USD and fundamentally price range should break above 1.1750 to 1.1800 maximum, but as long as the Fed is shifting its tone to Hawkish and signaling that taper announcement date could be announced officially in next FOMC + Rising inflation in EU, ECB approving to be longer dovish = monetary sentiment on USD side, rejections above 1.1750 however it is still within the price range <<<<
- ACCORDINGLY AHEAD OF U.S. INITIAL JOBLESS CLAIMS REPORT = PRICE RANGE = 1.1750-1.1700 -
- ANY BREAK ABOVE 1.1750 AHEAD OF DATA TO BE CAPPED BY 1.1800 AND IS LOW EXPECTED TO HAPPEN -
- PRICE TO BREAK ABOVE 1.1750 AND HOLD ONLY IF THE REPORT HAPPENS TO BE DOWNBEAT -
- PRICE TO BREAK BELOW 1.1700 TO MAXIMUM TARGET OF 1.1650 IF REPORT HAPPENS TO BE UPBEAT -
- THIS OUTLOOK REMAINS ONLY TILL UPCOMING NEWS AND DATA THAT MAY CHANGE THE PRICE RANGE, SO I WILL UPDATE ACCORDINGLY -
