The overall outlook remains bullish for Euro as long as it holds above 1.4140 levels (61.8% Retracement of the recent rise). However, the 4-hrly and daily stochastic is overbought in nature and some correction can be anticipated. Look for opportunities to initiate longs around 1.4270-80 levels (38.2% Retracement) for 50 pips. Furthermore, shorts can be cautiously initiated around 1.4360-80 levels with a target of 50 pips. (eur/usd – 1.4307).
