...the upside is stalling against the 100 hour MA.
The EURUSD fell after the weekend news and cracked briefly - once again - below the 200 hour MA (green line in the chart below). However, like the three times last week, the breaks did not have much momentum and the price has rebounded.
The bounce has been modest and the last few hours has stalled against the 100 hour moving average (blue line in the chart above). That moving average has been a barometer for bullish about bears below over the last four trading days (see red circled numbers).
The good news for traders is something has to give. Either the price is going to crack higher above the 100 hour MA (and hopefully have a run), or crack lower and run lower.
