The upside pressures on the EURUSD got more tensed since the 21st of June 2016 where the price climbed from 1.1237 to 1.1348.

Today’s major pivot point area, the 1.1348 zone, is a critical level for the buyers in their attempts of boosting the price once again to the upside.

Probable Scenario

The latest stabilization of the price close to the 1.1348 level is a good indication that the bulls could likely exert momentum to retrace the pair upwards.

Stochastic oscillators’ formation signals that a probable bullish retracement at the 70 level has greater probabilities to occur.

In the event where the pair appreciates, the buyers could set their take profit target at 1.1418.

Alternative Scenario

Alternatively, a bearish break-out below the 1.1306 zone could signal that the sellers may exert far greater pressures to force the price to lower areas such as the 1.1237 level as their first target.
