For the past two years EURUSD has been moving in a range between $0.95351 and $1.12632 per euro. On September 30, there has been a third repulsion in the upper zone despite the development in the channel has been slightly bullish. We will have to see if the dollar corrects its price to the middle zone around 1.03195. The RSI is oversold at 37.41% and average volumes are around 381,948k with current trading at 667,080k similar to volumes reflected since September which average 551,196k indicating that there is a constancy of slightly bullish trading volume. The current figure appears to be forming what may be a Shoulder-Head-Shoulder, and if this culminates in this way by turning around at around 1.10558 so, it will confirm that the dollar is regaining its strength.
