Happy Friday, traders.
Today, the forex market is all about technicals as the economic calendar doesn’t have much for us. During the Asian session, the Greenback remained steady against most of its peers in the face of global economic worries.

As forecast, the European Central Bank came up with a dovish sentiment and warned about the dimming outlook, projecting weaker-than-expected growth in the Eurozone for the near term. Which ultimately means, no rate hike is expected in the near future.

EUR/USD – Trading the Double Bottom Breakout

A day before on Thursday, the European Central Bank (ECB) took no action on interest rates and decided to keep the interest rates steady. However, President Mario Draghi cautioned that growth risks in the region had moved to the downside due to a number of outside factors.

On the dovish outlook, the EUR/USD violated the double bottom support level of $1.1345. On the 4-hour chart, the pair has closed below the double bottom pattern which is signaling a bearish bias for the pair. EUR/USD is likely to find support at $1.1270.

GBP/USD – Bullish Channel Breakout

The British Pound hits the highest level since November as Labour signals support for blocking the no-deal exit. The bullish momentum in the cable doesn’t seem to stop as it continues to rise above a strong resistance area of $1.3100.

Anyway, the long term trading range of $1.3175 – $1.3270 still remains intact as the pair is consolidating within it.

The leading indicator Stochastic has entered the overbought zone and the cable may face an immediate resistance near $1.3180 and $1.3210.
