EURUSD is holding onto recent gains - the pair has this week extended the recovery from the Feb 5 low of 1.1952. The Feb 5 price pattern is a bullish engulfing reversal. The pattern is still in play suggesting scope for a recovery. It also highlights a base at last week's low. Strong resistance at 1.2092/98, the 50- and 20-day EMAs gave way Tuesday, opening $1.2156 next. On the downside, sub 1.1952 levels would resume recent bearish pressure.
