EUR/USD inaugurated early trading sessions with an upward gap +17 pips and added +37 pips to Monday's gains with 1.0714 Feb-8-2017 fresh highs. US Index continued the bearish momentum on Monday with 101.01 low after peeking last week Thursday to 102.24. Markets didn't digest the strong NFP data on friday, scoring 235K compared to Jan 238K although forecasts were 196K. The pair failed to guard the 1.07 level, currently trading 1.0674 intraday.

Remark : Although the pair has managed to demonstrate strong gains this morning, EUR/USD remains under pressure by strong US Index. Stalling below S1 level will increase further selloffs and wash towards S2 level. Closing above R2 level is needed for a short-term-correction and shift to bullish forces.
