EURUSD has formed a bearish Daily candlestick pattern so far for the 31st of August. Price opened around 1.1796 and climbed all the way to 1.1845 but is now under pressure and trading just above 1.18. The Daily candlestick pattern has formed a long upper shadow (long upper tail).
Blue lines - Fibonacci retracements
In previous posts we justified and expected for price to bounce from 1.17 to 1.19 where we find the 38% Fibonacci retracement of the entire decline. The bounce has followed and so far price has reached very close to the 38% retracement level. Our target was 1.19 but we have seen today price up to 1.1845. Although technically short-term trend remains bullish, the Daily candlestick is becoming a warning signal and a potential reversal signal. Such candlestick patterns are found at the end of up trends. Traders need to be cautious. A reversal is possible to follow over the coming days. Support is at 1.1775-1.1785. Breaking below this level will be a sign of weakness and short-term trend reversal.
