The EURUSD pair or the \u201cfiber\u201d as what some  people call it has just broken out from a symmetrical triangle. As you  can see from its daily chart, the pair has actually reversed its  downtrend when it escaped from a cup and handle pattern. It then  continued to trade strong before consolidating into a symmetrical  triangle for the last two weeks. Given this recent price action, though,  I can say that buying the euro and selling the US dollar at the same  time would be a better idea at least from a technical point of view.  Such breakout could propel the pair up until it hits some resistance at  1.4250 or even at 1.4300. That\u2019s at least a 200-pip upside in the near  term. Not bad!<\/p>\n<p>The remaining days of this week would be crucial for the EURUSD. A  high degree of volatility is expected in all currency pairs especially  the fiber because of the US Federal monetary policy decision tomorrow  and the release of the US\u2019s non-farm payrolls (NFP) report on Friday.  There has been talks that the Fed would engage into another  non-traditional money printing activities (quantitative easing) in the  days to come in its desire to further ease the day-to-day market  interest rates in order to encourage more lending and spending. Puff  Daddy predicted it correctly \u2013 \u201cMore money, more problems.\u201d Of course  the problem here is reflected on the greenback as its valuation gets  diluted by the increase in money supply. Friday\u2019s NFP will likewise  create some noise. Based on the recent estimates, about 65,000 jobs were  added by US firms in the last month as against the 95,000 that got laid  off in the previous period. If this figure is correct, then such would  spark optimism among market participants, causing them to continue  supporting non-dollar currencies like the euro.<\/p>\n<p>More on <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.laidtrades.com\/\">LaidTrades.com<\/a> &#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calling all euro bulls!
