The EURAUD cross has experienced a strong upward movement that brought its value beyond the top of a descending regression channel. After topping the upper line, which, as we know, is 2 sigmas above the mean line, the price has made a consolidation on the line, making a series of lower highs.
Currently, the current 1H bar is making an engulfing pattern and managing to break the recent lows, which acted as supports for the action.
If that happens, the pair may experience a corrective run to the mid of the channel. This setup has a 2.28 reward-to-risk ratio, therefore, suitable for a controlled trade on the short side, using a sell-stop order that triggers below the recent lows.
Trade Setup:
Entry: Sell-Stop at 1.6295
