EURUSD has been stuck in a holding pattern for months, trapped within a trading range between 1.0447 and 1.1275. The currency pair is currently facing a critical decision point at the upper end of this range, with the 1.1275 resistance level acting as a pivotal barrier.
Bullish Case:
A breakout above 1.1275 could be a significant signal, potentially marking the resumption of the long-term uptrend that began at 0.9535. If this scenario unfolds, EURUSD could surge towards the next resistance level at 1.1600, and eventually retest its previous high around 1.2349. This would indicate strengthening bullish momentum and potentially a broader shift in market sentiment towards the euro.
Bearish Case:
Conversely, a failure to overcome 1.1275 could trigger a pullback, with 1.0720 acting as the first line of support. A breakdown below this level could open the door for further decline, potentially taking EURUSD back down to test the lower bound of the range at 1.0447. If breached, the next support level to watch would be around 0.9950. This breakdown scenario would suggest a weakening euro and potentially bearish market sentiment.
Neutral Stance:
Given the current lack of a clear directional bias, a neutral stance might be the most prudent approach until a decisive breakout or breakdown occurs.
