A word(s) of caution....
The EURUSD has seen some quick moves which seems to lack some liquidity. The pair cracked below both a trend line and the 200 hour MA at 1.18319 sent the pair scooting to the next target at 1.1809, where buyers entered. The price is now back above the 200 hour MA at 1.1839 currently. That break whipped "the market" good.....
Meanwhile, the GBPUSD traded above and below its 200 hour MA as the 3 day move higher continued. The selling back below the 200 hour MA did not lead to more selling. The pair moved back above and traded to new session highs at 1.3006, but has moved back below the key 1.3000 level over the last few minutes.
So be careful. There are some volatile up and down moves that may be liquidity voids ahead of the FOMC decision later today.
