EURO
The pair opened trading with a price gap that points to more expected bullish correction, which was also expected in last Friday's reports. Momentum indicators support achieving more bullish correction that we think will touch resistance for the descending channel at 1.3090 before determining the short term direction. We recommend observing future trading; especially the pair's movement if it reaches mentioned resistance since building a base below it will maintain the current bearish wave intact. Meanwhile, a clear breach and closing above it will lead to further upside movement towards 1.3395 at least.
The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.2615 and the key resistance at 1.3260.
The short term trend is to the downside as far as 1.3770 remains intact with targets at 1.2450.

Keep in mind that if the daily closing is below 1.4800 it will cancel out the need for any bullish correction so the pair may resume the bearish short term trend.
