EURUSD Analysis: Symmetrical Triangle and Awesome Oscillator
Currently, the EURUSD currency pair is trading at around 1.097. Interestingly, it's in a symmetrical triangle pattern, which typically indicates that the current trend will continue. As a result, the pair is following the rising trend line and attempting to break down. However, it's important to note that the trend line has been tested four times, so it presents a strong barrier for bearish traders. In addition, the bars on the Awesome Oscillator indicator have turned green and are approaching the signal area.
Furthermore, the low on July 27th supports a bullish outlook for the EURUSD price. If this level holds, the target will be 1.104, followed by 1.113. For those who want to trade long, it's recommended to set your risk at least 29 pips below the S1 support, as indicated by the ATR indicator.
On the other hand, if bearish traders manage to close below 1.0945 on the 4-hour chart, the decline that began on July 18th could extend to 1.092 and then to 1.083.
