EUR/USD has stretched the rally into the opening days of Q3 trade but at this point, the pair is overbought from both daily and weekly charts. On the weekly, RSI is nearing the 75 level and the last time the indicator was that high was back in January of 2018, just ahead of an almost 2,000 pip sell-off that ran for the next year and change.
Overbought doesn't mean automatic reversal, but it does highlight an increasingly heavier load for bulls to carry as the market gets more and more one-sided.
At this point structure on short-term charts remains bullish: The same Fibonacci retracement looked at last week has continued to carve highs and lows so far this week, with today's low showing at last week's high, around the 78.6% retracement of the 2021-2022 major move.
If we do see sellers make a statement move into the end of the week, perhaps provoked by NFP or perhaps just driven by a short squeeze in the USD, then we'd have a weekly wick above that key Fibonacci level on the longer-term EUR/USD chart, and that's something that can start to set the stage for more attractive reversal themes. - js
