Trading strategy: small short at 1.2720, stop at 1.2780(0.5% risk), objective at 1.2620

Euro’s minor recovery continues after testing support around 1.2660 yesterday. However, upside was capped at 1.2760. Upside is slightly favored at the time of writing but short-term bias remains bearish as long as 1.2900 is still “far” …
