Yes Jay, I see it – for me it is just an intermediary level that might serve its purpose…
If 1.08300 slows EUR down today, but it closes tonight above 1.08150/200 we can have a decent run and attack at 1.08600 Monday.
However, if EUR goes straight away for it ( 1.08600) it can easily collapse on Monday…
That is my way of seeing it…
EURUSD
And here we go – 1.08600 next resistance to watch.
If EUR manages to stay above 1.08150/200 till tonight’s close, this should be a start of a new Uptrend.
In case 1.08600 proves difficult to overcome on the first attempt, we might see another test of 1.07300
These are all possibilities and before we see how this day ends it is all just a speculation.

GOLD (XAU/USD) is currently at price 3086.87 at exactly 3pm here in Nigeria. From my speculation and Analysis Gold is soaring for a higher reach. I see it getting to price range 3096, at least . I have said it before and we all know that Gold is a Bulllish Metal so there is more bias of Gold buying than selling.
If Gold eventually sells (go bearish) it is usually Temporary before it resumes it former bullish position. Gold got to its highest point today at price 3086, and its lowest point was 3053.51
Let us keep an eye on this Metal as it moves swiftly in the market. Let’s all be guided by using a 1-5% Capital risk and a 1:2/3 risk/ reward ratio.
A word is enough for the wise.
Thanks,
TOPNINE.

EURUSD pops briefly above 1.08 on this headline… conspiracy theory says someone had the inside scoop on this given the way EURUSD traded bid ahead of it

EURUSD 4h
1.08200 proved to be a strong Resistance yesterday.
Hence: Close tonight below 1.08000 ( preferably below 1.08900) would be Bearish for tomorrow.
EURUSD Opened just below 1.08000
And that was a typical “Retest” and not re test – English and literature 101 has no place in Trading.
Resistances: 1.07800, 1.08000 & 1.08200
Supports: 1.07600, 1.07450 & 1.07300
