The EUR/USD pair has been moving-up since the pair has initiated the depicted short-term uptrend line on July 21.

By the end of July, a resistance level was formed around 1.1900 which prevented further upside movement for some time and forced the pair to have a downside pause towards 1.1715 in the form of a Wedge-Pattern.On August 12, a new short-term uptrend line was initiated around 1.1715. Since then, the EURUSD pair has been moving upward until Yesterday when we had a breakout above the previously mentioned resistance zone.
