Despite all the volatility last week, EUR/USD is still bounded in range above 1.0176. Initial bias remains neutral this week and further decline is expected. On the downside, firm break of 1.0176 will resume whole fall from 1.1213. However, firm break of 38.2% retracement of 1.1213 to 1.0176 at 1.0572 will raise the chance of reversal, and target 61.8% retracement at 1.0817.

It was part of the Green Series that Universal was releasing which had a number of bands. The Green Series means the packaging was all done with recycled paper and even used a plant based ink. Good on them for trying to save the earth, but with the shipping of the product and I am sure was wrapped in some sort of plastic, it was…
