EURUSD is this morning trading lower from the open after Yesterdays down day.
This morning EURUSD continues to trade lower. With the swing bias having turned negative we are monitoring a potential negative cross of the averages which will confirm the new down trend. However the weekly time does continue to point up which could indicate that this change of daily trend is nothing more than a strong corrective move.
In terms of the bigger picture the swing bias has changed to negative.
The following factors are confirming or reinforcing this market bias:
1. The swing bias is negative..
2. The price action has breached trend line support.
3. The price action has broken beneath the averages.
4. The RSI is showing signs of negative divergence.
Alternative counter trend bullish factors:
1. The weekly time frame has a positive swing bias.
2. The averages have crossed positively.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is down retracements into resistance could be viewed as selling opportunities
Scenario 2
Alternatively as EURUSD is extended from the averages and therefore there is a possibility of a corrective up to sideways move.
