EUR/USD bullish bias intact, US CPI decisive [Video]

The EUR/USD pair retreated a little in the short term as the Dollar Index rebounded. It’s trading at 1.0707 at the time of writing and is fighting hard to come back higher. Later, the US CPI and Core CPI could really shake the market and could bring sharp movements. The US inflation release represents a high-impact event, so anything could happen.

Technically, the bias is bullish as long as it stays above the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork. The upper median line (uml) is seen as a potential upside target.  A larger upside movement could be activated by a valid breakout through this dynamic resistance.
