Monitoring EUR/USD’s Retracement

For traders attuned to Fibonacci levels, EUR/USD has emerged as an intriguing market to watch.

The rally observed between October and November halted at the 61.8% retracement level from the summer sell-off. In recent weeks, EUR/USD has retraced part of that October-November surge, hitting the pivotal 50% mark after a strong showing in Friday's non-farm payrolls report (199k jobs added versus an expected 185k) and a drop in the unemployment rate (3.7% versus an expected 3.9%).

Remarkably close to the 50% Fibonacci retracement lies the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), anchored to October's lows. This serves as a gauge of the true average price for EUR/USD bulls. Additionally, situated beneath the anchored VWAP is the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, holding harmonic significance due to its symmetry with the peak of the Oct-Nov rally (visible in the daily candle chart below).

Lower Timeframe Analysis

When analysing retracements, it’s often helpful to drop down a timeframe. A glance at EUR/USD’s 4-hour chart (below) underlines that the market is currently trending lower within an orderly descending channel.

This is useful for EUR/USD bulls looking to time their entry. Entering a trade at these fibonacci levels means traders are going against the short-term trend, waiting on a longer-term pattern break may be a better confirmation of price continuing with short-term momentum.
