Nota

EUR/SGD set for reversal



EUR/SGD is trading in two patterns simultaneously. The more senior formation is a rather chaotic channel up, while the junior one—a descending triangle. The latter seems to have reached its maturity, thus suggesting that a breakout may be due in the upcoming hours.

Descending triangle is generally a bearish pattern that should guide the rate towards the weekly S1 at 1.6033. This scenario is likewise supported by daily indicators.

Given that the 55-, 100– and 200-hour SMAs are located just above the current price level, a breakout north is unlikely. However, if this situation is to occur, the next important resistance is set by the weekly R1 at 1.6253.
