EURUSD traded sharply lower on Apr 30 and this threatens the recent bullish theme. Last week saw price trade above the bear channel top drawn off the Jan 6 high. The failure to follow through however does warn of a false break and a key S/T resistance has been defined at 1.2150, Apr 29 high. A firm support lies at 1.2014/1987, the 20 and 50-day EMAs. A break would trigger a stronger sell-off. Clearance of 1.2150 is needed to reinstate the uptrend.
