It would be a good time to buy in that area since the price is crossing the support, however it continues with the upward trend, however, you could wait for the price to fall to 110.73 to make the purchase, if it breaks that price and continues to fall you could wait to play the next support.
FOREX: EUR/USD
The formation of a bullish reversal candlestick in EUR/USD can be a good
technical sign for the Euro bulls. However, the buyers must exercise caution before betting big.
EUR/USD is still below the key moving averages on the hourly, 4Hour and daily charts . Besides,
the main support level is still at 1.1720 level.
That being said, Friday’s bullish reversal candlestick could still lead to some pullback this week.
So, if EUR/USD doesn’t fall below the 1.1810 level, there is a chance for a recovery to the 1.20 level.
I would be looking for a low risk buy entry near 1.1825 with SL below 1.18 and TP at 1.1980.
