EUR/USD Downside Momentum Fades As Intraday Dojis Signal Indecision

Talking Points

• EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred
• Hanging Man Fails To Generate Follow-Through
• Dojis On H4 Suggest A Consolidation Ahead

EUR/USD’s post Hanging Man pullback appears to have lost some momentum. As noted the pair has recently posted a series of higher highs and higher lows – the basic definition of an uptrend. In turn this casts some doubt over the potential for downside follow-through from the bearish reversal signal. Buying interest appears evident at the 1.2755 mark below which would open 1.2620.

A trio of Dojis on the four hour chart highlighted hesitation from the bears near the 1.2750 mark. A more recent Doji suggests further indecision and may be the precursor to a consolidation over the session ahead.
