Cable is in down fall, and this morning almost reached the 100% retracement in 60m chart after 7 days making news lows.

The move anyway was quite tricky this morning because it started before the Frankfurt opening so only the early risers won the price today.

Today the Eur has broken the Asian Session resistance, yesterday’s high and one week’s high and one month’s high!!

This is is a real Breakout. 130 pips in just 3 hours. Eur doesn’t move this far these days, so something important is cocking.

The breakout move at the European window (Frankfurt _ London) was very easy (textbook) and afterwards the move gave us multiple entry opportunities

Today we had an incredible start of the day, EUR and GBP breaking all the resistance levels because of the dollar weakness. Yesterday was Bank Holiday in USA, so the market was waiting to push higher on a liquidity environment. Friday’s labor report didn’t convince finally the operators, so the dollar has been punished all across the board.

This move reserves 2 posts, one for the GBP/USD and other one for EUR/USD:

Pound has been rejected very strongly this morning after the price formed a MACD divergence at resistance level. Yesterday’s highs (1.6380)

The price broke the ascending trend line and come all the way down, accelerated by the news release (PMI Manufacturing), as it came lower than expected.

The price found support at the Asian Support, but it’s making new lows
