EURO

The pair is trading with the tendency to the downside on an intraday basis, facing a major resistance at 1.2740 where the 1.2705 is also an obstacle for the pair. We see today that movements will be to the upside in an attempt to breach these mentioned levels once again after rebounding from the 76.4% correction at 1.2565. If the pair was able to maintain trading above this level, we could see it extend gains to the resistance levels yet at the same time, we shouldn't forget that the trend for today still holds downside potential. The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.2405 and the key resistance at 1.2910 The general trend is to the downside as far as 1.5080 remains intact with targets at 1.2480 and 1.2340
