Key quotes

“EUR/USD for the past three months has been in a range. It is viewed as a bullish consolidation range, but we have yet to see the trigger of a break higher.” 

“The pair is consolidating below its current November high at 1.1920 and the 78.6% retracement at 1.1926, and is easing back slightly but it will remain bid in its range while above the six-month support lineat 1.1682.” 

“Resistance at 1.1926 is considered the last defence for the August peak at 1.2014.”
