Today's Support and Resistance levels:

R3: 142.73

R2: 142.47

R1: 142.18

Current spot: 141.93

S1: 141.66

S2: 141.42

S3: 141.12

Technical summary:

We have seen a new break above minor resistance at 141.80, which is frustrating, as the short-term patterns get even more complex than they already are. Ideally resistance at 142.18 will now protect the upside for a break below minor support at 141.92 and more importantly below support at 141.66 as that would add renewed downside pressure on this currency pair. However, to confirm real downside pressure, a break below support at 140.99 is needed and a break below will call for a decline towards at least 139.09 and likely even lower towards 136.55.

A break above resistance at 142.18 will once again frustrate the short-term picture and call for a new test of 142.47 and maybe even slightly higher towards 142.73.

Trading recommendation:

Stay short in EUR from 141.68 with stop placed at 142.50.
