EUR/USD - Bullish Retracement within Downtrend

Posted: 02 Feb 2010 08:08 AM PST

EUR/USD 4-Hour ChartPrice action on EUR/USD, a 4-hour chart of which is shown, has made yet another bullish retracement within the context of the new overall downtrend. The current leg of this new downtrend extends from the January 13th high, and has formed a valid bearish resistance trendline. Within the context of this downtrend resistance line, price has made several breakdowns of both short-term uptrend support lines and horizontal support levels. As might be expected, these breakdowns have continued the dominant downtrend with significant downside follow-through. If the current leg of the prevailing downtrend is to continue, a key continuation trigger would be a breakdown below the current short-term uptrend support line.
