The currency pair was continuing its upward trend yesterday

S&P 500 (Dec 12) INTRADAY Review For two days running our strategy report has been a whisker away from solid profit. In the same fashion as Tuesday, the S&P dipped following the US cash open and just missed getting down to our long entry level before then reversing and pushing higher to find resistance at our second profit target before the European close. Overall it was another bullish session which makes in three in a row this week with a total gain of 2.5%.
