EUR/USD Makes New Highs For 2009

By Greg Michalowski on October 20, 2009 | More Posts By Greg Michalowski | Forex News By FXDD

The EUR/USD has made a new high during the Asian session as Asian stocks have continued to gain reducing the demand for refuge and hitting the USD. The 1.4989 level has not been seen since August of 2008 and has brought the 1.50 psychological level into striking distance this session.

Technical resistance will be linked to option strikes and the double bottom made below the 1.53 handle last May and June. However, a test of the long-term trendline support noted below is still a short-term possibility.
