EURUSD remains on the back foot within bearish channel

EURUSD braces for the eighth consecutive weekly loss despite the latest hesitance of the bears surrounding the bottom line of the 1.5-month-old descending trend channel. It’s worth noting that the nearly oversold RSI line and sluggish MACD signals suggest a corrective bounce of the Euro pair, which in turn highlights the previous support line stretched from late June, close to 1.0750 by the press time. In a case where the quote remains firmer past 1.0750, September’s peak of around 1.0885 and the aforementioned channel’s top line surrounding 1.0900 will lure the pair buyers. It should be observed, however, that the bullish bias remains elusive unless the quote stays below the 200-SMA hurdle of 1.0925, a break of which could challenge July’s peak of 1.1275 gradually.

Meanwhile, the EURUSD pair’s weakness might dwindle around the stated bearish channel’s bottom line, close to 1.0695 by the press time. Following that, the lows marked in May and March, respectively near 1.0635 and 1.0515 could lure the Euro sellers. Should the pair bears remain in control past 1.0515, the yearly bottom of around 1.0480 will act as the final battle point for the buyers before giving the throne to the sellers.

Overall, EURUSD is likely to remain bearish but a corrective bounce can’t be ruled out.
