EUR/USD Mid-Session Technical Analysis for November 17, 2017
The EUR/USD is trading higher on Friday. Most of the rally is being fueled by a weaker dollar rather than a stronger Euro. The greenback is under pressure because of a report from The Wall Street Journal which stated the Trump campaign’s records had been subpoenaed as part of the investigation into Russian interference in the U.S. Presidential election.

Daily Technical Forecast
The early price action indicates that investors are respecting the 50% level at 1.1823. Overtaking this level could drive the market into the long-term downtrending angle at 1.1842. This angle stopped the rally earlier in the week.
Overcoming 1.1842 is likely to drive the EUR/USD into the high for the week at 1.1860, followed by the Fibonacci level at 1.1886.
If the upside momentum starts to taper off, we could see an intraday break into yesterday’s low at 1.1756. If this price fails then look for a move into the uptrending angle at 1.1713, followed by a pair of 50% levels at 1.1707 to 1.1702.
