It’s May 5th and cause of celebration in so many countries around the world for completely different reasons, so happy 5/5 wherever you are and if you are clueless about forex trading, you know where to go: the Learn to Earn page on Investdiva.com enroll in our education program and after only 5 hours of education videos, BAM! You are ready to come back here to hear about today’s diamond analysis on a currency pair, dancing on the forex dance floor.
And the pick of the day is EUR/USD as Mr. Mr. euro dances against Ms. USA above the Ichimoku cloud on the daily dance floor. The pair formed a hammer candle pattern on Friday, with its lower shadow teasing the upper band of the Ichimoku cloud. It opened higher this morning with the RSI neatly above the neutrality area. We think Mr. Fibonacci was able to hold the pair very well above the 50% level and have set our target at 1.39210. Now if the pair suddenly decides to go nuts and break down below 1.3640, that would change our outlook to consolidation in the 1.34 area.
