EUR/USD higher as traders cut on long dollar positions
According to FX Charts analyst Jim Langlands, “The Euro has closed at the higher end of the day’s range, currently up against Fibo resistance (61.8% of 1.3415/1.2762) as traders continue to cut out long dollar positions. Technically, as we wrote yesterday, the dollar remains under pressure ahead of Bernanke and this looks likely to continue, despite the fact that it must be pretty much written in to the price that he will remain dovish on his outlook.”
