Technical Outlook July 17, 2017EURUSDThe currency pair went upwards after the disappointing US CPI and Retail Sales data. There was the opportunity to open short sales according to our recommendations during the European session and to protect those positions.
Later, those trades closed by stop losses. We think that the currency pair is able to develop its growth in the nearest future. There is a very important Eurozone inflation data today, which is able to shake the market.
There is the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55 balance line. The currency pair was trading according to our expectations last week and had some moderate growth. We think that EUR/USD is likely to develop its upside dynamics in the next couple of days.
There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is neutral and the price is above the MA55 balance line. We advise to open long trades from the MA55 balance line. Place stop losses below the indicator. Pay attention to the risks as they are very high.
GBPUSDThe currency pair continued its growth on Friday and offered an opportunity to buy from the MA13 in the beginning of the European session.
