Technical Analysis 2017.07.17 - EUR/USD, XAU/USD

The H4 the price was unable to consolidate below 1.1400 (or see a 23.6% correction) of course this doesn’t mean that the currency pair won’t see a correction soon. If the pair surpasses 1.1400 near the intersection with the limit of the upper fan (i.e. at 38.2% and the 23.6%) curve which will most likely lead to correction around the 1.1345 level. “Bullish” level are set at 1.1487. If the pairs price consolidates above this we may see a long term upswing, of course this is speculative.
The D1 chart shows the price remaining banded under the upper trend and while testing 1.1470. If a break over this level, the pair may experience growth. Alternatively the level might reach 1.1340 and 1.1255. Gradual growth is another possible movement of the currency pair.
