Analysis of trading charts from April 4

The EURUSD currency pair managed to partially restore dollar positions during the price rebound from the resistance range level of 1.1120/1.1180. This movement returned the quote to the psychologically important area of 1.1000, where there was a slight stagnation.

The GBPUSD currency pair is moving in a closed amplitude of 1.3105/1.3180 for the fifth day in a row, showing low activity. This indicates the indecision of traders and the process of accumulation of trading forces. At the same time, when comparing EURUSD and GBPUSD pairs, there is a discrepancy, which should not be due to the positive correlation. This once again proves the fact of the characteristic uncertainty among traders.
