EUR/USD Analysis

Yesterday this pair fell, finding a bottom at 1.1030 which acted as resistance early during Monday’s trading, so this looks to be a flipped level that could well be supportive if we return there.

The market of course continues to be dominated by the very confusing and dramatic Greek crisis. However it looks like there may be a period of relative quiet on that front until the weekend. However later today we have the NFP which can have a big impact on the USD, so news rather than technical could well be the key driver.

As well as the levels mentioned above, it seems that the area around 1.1150 could also provide some resistance.

Concerning the USD, there will be Non-Farm Employment Change and Unemployment Change data at 1:30pm London time, one day earlier than usual. Regarding the EUR, the President of the ECB will be speaking at 4:10pm, but is unlikely to be anything of importance.
