Negative signals indicate losses to extend for EURUSD (extract from Weekly Market Forecast 30th of March 2014)

EURUSD pair found sellers during the last week, as the pair broke a critical support level to trade lower. The pair is now bouncing from the weekly 20 moving average and opposite band of Bollinger on the daily chart. I still feel that the down-move is not over in the pair, and every major rally should present us a sell opportunity. There is a stiff resistance for the pair, as can be seen in the chart below.

There is a bearish trend line on the 4 hour chart connecting all major previous highs. There is also a resistance area at around the 1.3830/50 levels. If the pair trades a bit higher from the current levels, struggles around the resistance zone and forms a bearish divergence, then we can consider entering into a sell trade. Remember, the pair should respect the last high at around the 1.3870 for this trade setup to be valid.

Initial target should be around the 1.3650, and final target could be around the 1.3600 level. Stop should be placed above the 1.3880 level.

Major events scheduled in the upcoming week
The market was mostly quiet during the last week except for the AUDUSD and NZDUSD pairs. They both found buyers and managed to trade higher. The AUDUSD traded as high as 0.9294 and NZDUSD traded above the 0.8650 level. The EURUSD pair was comparatively weaker, as the uncertainty weighed on the pair. GBPUSD managed to gain some ground after the better than expected retail sales data pushed the pair above the 1.6620 level. There are several important events scheduled during the upcoming week, which can play an important role.
