Traders continued to sell the euro after the release of weak statistics on manufacturing activity in the eurozone. At the moment, it is not necessary to count on the continuation of the correctional growth that was observed in Asian trading. The main task of buyers will be a breakthrough and consolidation above the resistance of 1.1386, which will lead to an update of a larger level of 1.1433, where I recommend to take profits. Also, bulls need to stay above 1.1352. Otherwise, it is best to open long positions to rebound from 1.1312.
To open short positions on EURUSD you need:
In the first half of the day, important statistics are not expected to be released; therefore, an unsuccessful fixation above the resistance of 1.1386 will be a direct signal to selling the euro in order to break and fix below the support of 1.1352. Only below this level can we count on a large sell-off of the EUR/USD to the area of this week's low of 1.1312. Further fall of the euro to 1.1272 will directly depend on the data that will be released in the second half of the day for the American economy.
