Over the last couple of weeks, the Euro has retraced from its highs near 1.32 and the 1.30 level emerged again as a level of significance. It was able to provide some support a couple of weeks ago however the Euro has since broken through. It also attempted to cling onto the 1.30 level, however it was sold heavily at any price above 1.30.
Over the last week, the Euro continued to face intense selling pressure which eventually wore it down as it stepped lower in largely 50 pip moves. It finished last week with a sharp fall which saw it drop 100 pips and settle well below the 1.29 level. (Daily chart / 4 hourly chart below)
