Euro Rebounded Strongly, Key Resistance Level Watched Before Confirming Reversal Euro staged an impressively strong rebound last week and reversed recent fortune on a couple of factors.

Secondly, ECB Trichet surprised the markets and struck a hawkish tone in the post meeting press conference which raised speculation of a rate hike in the latter half of 2011. Thirdly, there were speculations that EU will finally boost the bailout fund after the meeting in Brussels in the early part of this week. EUR/USD had only a brief stay below 1.3 psychological and closed firmly at 1.3387 after a strong rebound. Rebound in EUR/CHF and EUR/GBP were also impressive.
