FX.co ★ Trading plan for EURUSD for May 19, 2021

Technical outlook:

EURUSD bulls managed to extend its rally past 1.2242 resistance today, before pulling back. Looking at the current wave structure, possibilities remain for at least a corrective drop towards 1.1950 levels, if not a trend reversal. A potential shooting star is being produced on the daily chart at the moment and if successful, bears might come back in control soon.

EURUSD is seen to be trading around 1.2210 levels at this point in time, and is expected to break below 1.2200 handle in the immediate future. The entire rally between 1.1704 and 1.2245 could still be seen as a correction and bears might come back strong. Immediate resistance is now seen at 1.2350 while support is 1.2051 levels respectively. A break below 1.2050 from here would be encouraging for bears.

On the flip side if the rally continues to build towards 1.2350, the structure might turn bullish again. Either way, strong probabilities remain for a meaningful corrective drop towards 1.1950 levels at least. We shall review situation then, to decide on further course of action.

Trading plan:

Remain short, stop @ 1.2350, target @ 1.1300 and lower.

Good luck!
