Firmer tone within defined ranges

"24-HOUR VIEW: Following last Friday’s price action, we highlighted yesterday that “momentum indicators are mostly flat,” and expected EUR to “rangetrade between 1.1415 and 1.1455.” EUR subsequently dipped to 1.1408, rose to 1.1444 before closing largely unchanged at 1.1440 (+0.04%). We continue to expect range-trading, but the firmer underlying tone suggests EUR is likely to trade in a higher range of 1.1425/1.1470."

"1-3 WEEKS VIEW: We revised our EUR view to mildly positive last Friday (03 Jul, spot at 1.1430). We highlighted that “the bias for EUR is tilted to the upside,” but we stated that “expect firm resistance at 1.1470 and 1.1500.” We will maintain this view as long as EUR holds above 1.1390 (‘strong support’ level previously at 1.1370)."
