Euro Nearing Key Up And Down Levels

FYI | Jun 05 2012

FNArena has added another video to its Investors Education section on the website.In this video, ATW's Jerry Simmons once again looks at the EUR/USD, noting the euro has now gone down for 5 straight weeks, hitting a major low from 2008 today (6 June 2012 US time).

From a technical perspective, Simmons would like to see EUR/USD push past 1.27 before he is prepared to call a reversal. On the other hand, a break below 1.22 would confirm further downward movements.

As noted last week, the EUR/USD cross remains an important indicator, with Simmons assuming that risk assets will track the euro.

As far as crude oil goes, Simmons thinks there’s a chance we could see a multi-day or multi-week rally if key resistance (for WTI) at 84.50 were broken. Natural gas, though down, is holding, while Weekly Commodity Futures have a chance of turning higher.
