EURUSD bulls keep control ahead of ECB Minutes, US dataEURUSD pares the biggest daily gains of the week while posting mild losses early Friday. Even so, the Euro pair remains on the way to posting a four-week uptrend as traders prepare for the European Central Bank (ECB) Monetary Policy Meeting Accounts, also known as the ECB Minutes, as well as the preliminary readings of the US UoM Consumer Sentiment Index and Inflation Expectations. It should be noted that upbeat RSI and MACD conditions keep the buyers hopeful but a downward-sloping resistance line from early March, close to 1.0790 at the latest, guards the immediate upside of the pair. Apart from the oscillators like RSI and MACD, the looming “Golden Cross”, a bullish moving average crossover, also keep the buyers hopeful. However, a clear upside of the 5.5-month-old descending resistance line, near 1.0825 as we write, becomes necessary for the bulls to retake control. In that case, the gradual run-up toward March’s high of 1.0980 and then to the 1.1000 threshold can’t be ruled out.
Meanwhile, a pullback move remains uninteresting beyond the 50-SMA support of 1.0735. Following that, the lows marked in April and February, respectively around 1.0725 and 1.0695, could test the EURUSD bears before directing them to the yearly low marked in April around 1.0600. It’s worth noting that the Euro pair’s sustained weakness past 1.0600 makes it vulnerable to challenge the previous yearly bottom surrounding 1.0450-45 but the same needs validation from the strong US fundamentals, as well as downbeat EU catalysts.
Overall, EURUSD bulls are likely to retake control after staying off the grid for some time.
However, the fundamentals need to back the pair’s bullish technical details to support the upside bias.

EURUSD drops toward key support line near 1.0600 on Fed DayEURUSD remains pressured at the lowest level in a week, extending the late April’s retreat from 20-SMA and a six-month-old support-turned-resistance, as traders await the US Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy announcements. The Euro pair’s weakness also takes clues from an impending bear cross on the MACD and an absence of oversold RSI conditions. With this, the quote is likely to extend the latest fall toward an ascending support line stretched from early October 2023, close to 1.0610 at the latest. Following that, the yearly low marked in April around 1.0600 and multiple lows registered during late 2023 near 1.0520 and 1.0490 will test the bears before directing them toward the previous yearly low of 1.0448.
Alternatively, the US Fed’s inability to inspire the EURUSD bulls, mainly amid the high hopes, could trigger a quick recovery in the pair prices toward the 20-SMA hurdle of 1.0710. However, the quote’s further upside needs validation from the previous support line stretched from early November 2023 surrounding 1.0740. It should be noted that a convergence of the 200-SMA and 50-SMA, near the 1.0800 threshold at the latest, appears a tough nut to crack for the buyers, a clear break of which will enable them to confront the final defense of the sellers, namely a downward-sloping resistance line from December 2023, near 1.0865 as we write.
To sum up, the EURUSD is on the way to testing the key support line as market players await the FOMC verdict. However, high hopes from the US central bank and a limited downside room for the pair suggest hardships for the sellers past 1.0600.
EURUSD seesaws within bear flag ahead of EU/US PMI for AprilEURUSD struggles to defend the previous week’s rebound from a yearly low as traders await preliminary readings of the Eurozone and the US PMI data for April. Apart from the pre-data anxiety, sluggish prints of the RSI (14) and the MACD signals also suggest a lack of momentum. Even so, the sellers appear hopeful as the major currency pair stays within a fortnight-old bear flag chart formation. Additionally favoring the Euro bears is the quote’s sustained trading beneath the 10-week-old horizontal region, previous support surrounding 1.0700-690, as well as a downward-sloping support-turned-resistance line stretched from late February, close to 1.0680 at the latest. Even if the major currency pair manages to defy the bearish chart formation by crossing the 1.0705 upside hurdle, the 200-SMA level of 1.0810 and a falling resistance line from early March, near 1.0840 as we write, will act as the final defense of the bears before giving control to the bulls.
Alternatively, EURUSD sellers should wait for a clear downside break of the 1.0620 for fresh entry as it will confirm the bear flag chart formation. Following that, the monthly low of 1.0600 and the previous yearly low surrounding 1.0445 will act as buffers during the quote’s theoretical south-run suggesting 1.0315 as a target. It’s worth noting that early 2023 swing lows near 1.0515 and 1.0480 become extra downside filters for the bears to watch during the Euro’s theoretical fall between 1.0620 and 1.0315.
Overall, EURUSD is likely to remain bearish unless crossing 1.0705. However, the sellers need strong US PMI, as well as too weak activity data from the bloc, to confirm the bear flag formation suggesting a major decline in prices.
EURUSD stays pressured toward 1.0600 amid risk-aversionEURUSD extends the previous day’s pullback from a four-month-old support-turned-resistance as sour sentiment underpins the US Dollar demand early Friday. In doing so, the Euro pair takes clues from the bearish MACD signals while paying little attention to the RSI (14) line suggesting a weak support for the current momentum. With this, the quote appears well set to revisit the latest trough surrounding the 1.0600. However, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s October-December upside, near 1.0595, will join the downbeat RSI conditions to challenge the bears afterward. Should the sellers keep the reins past 1.0595, 1.0520 and 1.0495 may act as intermediate halts before directing the prices toward the previous yearly bottom surrounding 1.0450.
Meanwhile, the aforementioned previous support line from December 2023, close to 1.0675, guards the immediate recovery of the EURUSD pair ahead of the 10-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) level near 1.0690. In a case where the Euro pair rises past 1.0690, and also crosses the 1.0700 threshold, the early-month bottom around 1.0725 and 50% Fibonacci retracement level near 1.0800 will challenge the upside moves. Above all, the bull’s dominance needs validation from a convergence of the four-month-old resistance line and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level, around 1.0880.
To sum up, the EURUSD pair is likely to remain weak but the room toward the south appears limited.
EURUSD pares the biggest daily loss in 13 months on ECB DayWednesday’s strong US inflation data and hawkish Fed Minutes portrayed the EURUSD pair’s biggest daily slump since March 2023. Even so, the Euro pair failed to conquer a five-month-old rising support line, close to 1.0730 by the press time. The inability to break important support joins the market’s consolidation ahead of the European Central Bank (ECB) Interest Rate Decision to trigger the quote’s corrective bounce. However, the below 50.00 status of the RSI (14) line joins the bearish MACD signals to challenge the bullish bias, which in turn highlights the aforementioned 1.0730 support for the sellers to watch. Following that, the yearly low of 1.0695 and the mid-November 2023 bottom surrounding 1.0655 will act as the final defenses of the bulls.
On the contrary, a 50% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s October-December 2023 upside, close to 1.0795, quickly followed by the 1.0800 threshold, cap the immediate upside of the EURUSD. Even if the quote manages to remain firmer past 1.0800, 200-SMA and 100-SMA will challenge the Euro buyers around 1.0830 and 1.0870 respectively. It’s worth noting that the pair’s upside past 1.0870 remains inconclusive for the bulls unless crossing a downward-sloping resistance line stretched from December 2023, near 1.0900 threshold at the latest.
To sum up, the EURUSD pair consolidates heavy losses ahead of the key ECB event, as well as the US PPI data. However, the bullish bias appears less convincing below 1.0900, especially when the ECB is likely to announce a dovish halt.
EURUSD keeps rebound from 1.0725-20 support as EU/US data looomEURUSD recovered from a two-month-old horizontal support the previous day while teasing buyers with the biggest intraday gains in a week ahead of today’s top-tier data from the Eurozone and the US. The corrective bounce from the said support crossed a one-week-long descending resistance and gained support from the firmer RSI (14) line to lure the Euro bulls. However, a convergence of the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s fall from December 2023 to February 2024 and the 50-SMA, around 1.0800 by the press time, will challenge the pair buyers. Following that, the previous week’s peak of around 1.0865 and the downward-sloping resistance line from late December 2023, near 1.0910, could restrict the quote’s further upside.
On the flip side, the resistance-turned-support line stretched from last Tuesday, close to 1.0760 at the latest, limits the EURUSD pair’s immediate downside ahead of the previously stated horizontal support zone near 1.0725-20. It’s worth noting, however, that the RSI (14) conditions and the yearly low of near 1.0700-695 might raise the bars for the Euro bears past 1.0720. In a case where the sellers keep the reins below 1.0695, the odds of witnessing a southward trajectory toward the May 2023 low of near 1.0625 can’t be ruled out.
To sum up, EURUSD is likely to witness further recovery in prices as traders await the Eurozone inflation and the US ISM Services PMI, as well as the US ADP Employment Change. However, the upside room for the prices appears limited unless the scheduled data disappoints the US Dollar bulls and favors the Euro’s latest advances.
EURUSD bears attack six-month-old support ahead of Fed inflationEURUSD remains pressured at the lowest level in five weeks, down for the fourth consecutive day, as market players await the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) preferred inflation gauge, namely the Core Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) Price Index data for February. In doing so, the Euro pair pokes the key support line stretched from early October 2023 while extending its fall from a convergence of the 200-day and the 50-day SMAs. That said, the bearish MACD signals and the pair’s failure to extend the week-start rebound beyond the key SMA joint keep the sellers hopeful. Also adding strength to the downside bias is a looming death-cross on the daily chart, a condition where the 50-SMA crosses the 200-SMA from above. It’s worth noting, however, that the RSI (14) line is sliding towards the oversold territory, which in turn suggests limited downside room for the quote. As a result, an area comprising the 1.0700 round figure and the previous monthly low of near 1.0695 will test the bears. Following that, a downward-slopping support line from December, close to 1.0675 at the latest, will act as the final defense of the buyers.
Meanwhile, the 1.0800 round figure guards the immediate recovery of the EURUSD pair ahead of the aforementioned SMA confluence, near 1.0835-40 by the press time. Should the quote manage to remain firmer past 1.0840, the 1.0900 threshold and a three-month-long descending resistance line surrounding 1.0940 will be crucial to watch before welcoming the Euro buyers. In a case where the bulls keep the reins past 1.0940, the monthly high of 1.0981 and the 1.1000 psychological magnet will act as the additional upside filters before giving control to the bulls.
Overall, the EURUSD pair is likely to witness further downside ahead of the key US data. However, the Good Friday holiday will restrict the market’s reaction to the statistics.
EURUSD flirts with 1.0880-75 key support as Fed week beginsEURUSD remains pressured around 1.0890 early Monday, after posting the first weekly loss in four. In doing so, the Euro pair grinds near the 1.0880-75 support confluence comprising the 100-SMA and a five-week-old rising trend line amid the initial hours of the week comprising the key Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) monetary policy meeting. It’s worth noting that an impending bull cross on the MACD and a below 30 level of RSI (14) suggest the pre-FOMC consolidation of the quote. However, the corrective bounce appears elusive unless buyers manage to cross a downward-sloping trend line from the monthly high, close to 1.0945 at the latest. Even so, the monthly top surrounding 1.0980 and the 1.1000 threshold will act as the final defense of the sellers.
Meanwhile, a downside break of the 1.0880-75 key support will allow the EURUSD bears to attack the 200-SMA level of 1.0830. Following that, the 1.0790-85 and the 1.0730 levels could test the sellers before directing the prices toward the yearly low marked in February near 1.0695. In a case where the Euro remains bearish past 1.0695, the May 2023 low of 1.0635 and March 2023 bottom surrounding 1.0515 will provide intermediate halts during a likely south-run targeting the previous yearly low of 1.0448.
Overall, the EURUSD pair stays on the bear’s radar even if the oscillators suggest consolidation ahead of the key FOMC.
EURUSD rebounds within a month-old bullish channelEURUSD picks up bids to 1.0930 as traders consolidate weekly loss amid a sluggish Asian session on early Wednesday. In doing so, the Euro pair recovers within a one-month-old bullish trend channel amid upbeat RSI and MACD conditions. It’s worth noting that Tuesday’s Doji candlestick adds strength to the quote’s corrective bounce. With this, the buyers are likely to retake control and can aim for the 1.1000 threshold as an immediate upside target. However, the aforementioned channel’s top line surrounding 1.1010 and the November 2023 peak of 1.1017 will test the pair’s further upside. In a case where the bulls keep the reins past 1.1017, the previous yearly high marked in December around 1.1140 will be in the spotlight.
On the contrary, EURUSD sellers will have a hard time taking control as the stated channel’s bottom line joins the 21-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to highlight the 1.0870 as a tough nut to crack for them. Even if the Euro bears manage to smash the 1.0870 key support, an ascending support line from October 2023, near 1.0750, will test the bears. Furthermore, lows marked in December 2023 and last month, respectively near 1.0720 and 1.0690, also act as downside filters before giving control to the sellers.
To sum up, EURUSD buyers are likely to keep the reins even if the upside room appears limited.
EURUSD pullback appears imminent but bulls stay hopefulEURUSD bulls take a breather at a six-week high as a rising wedge challenges the quote’s further upside. Apart from the stated bearish chart formation’s top line, the overbought RSI (14) line and sluggish MACD signals also challenge the Euro pair’s further advances. As a result, a pullback toward the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s December 2023 to February 2024 downturn, close to 1.0865, appears imminent. However, a convergence of the 100-bar and 200-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA), as well as the aforementioned wedge’s bottom line, around 1.0830, appears a tough nut to crack for the sellers. In a case where the quote drops below 1.0830, it confirms a bearish chart pattern suggesting a theoretical target of 1.0610. During the likely fall, the lows marked in late 2023 and in the previous month, respectively near 1.0725 and 1.0700, could offer a breathing space to the bears.
On the contrary, the EURUSD pair’s successful rejection of the rising wedge formation, by a clear upside break of the 1.0900 hurdle, could help it challenge the late January peak surrounding 1.0930. Following that, the 1.1000 psychological magnet and the yearly high of near 1.1040 and late 2023 top around 1.1140 will lure the Euro buyers.
Overall, the EURUSD pair is likely to witness a pullback amid a lack of more incentive for the bulls. That said, the bearish trend, however, remains off the table until the quote stays beyond 1.0830.
EURUSD snaps three-day losing streak but remains vulnerableEURUSD stays defensive around 1.0820 as it rebounds from the 50% Fibonacci ratio of the October-December 2023 upside. In doing so, the Euro pair prints the first daily gain in four while approaching the 200-SMA resistance surrounding 1.0830. Not only the 200-SMA but the 50-SMA level of around 1.0870 also challenges the pair buyers. Following that, the lat January swing high of around 1.0930 and the 1.1000 threshold will be the final defenses of the bears before welcoming the bulls.
On the contrary, the 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci ratios around 1.0795 and 1.0710 respectively act as the strong downside support levels for the EURUSD. Also acting as the downside filter is the monthly low of around 1.0695, a break of which will divert the Euro sellers toward the October 2023 swing low of around 1.0450. That said, bullish MACD signals and the upbeat RSI conditions also challenge the quote’s further downside past the Golden Fibonacci Ratio, namely the 61.8% Fibonacci ratio.
Overall, the EURUSD bears appear taking the rest but are still in the game even if the quote’s downside past 61.8% Fibonacci ratio needs a strong reason to lure the sellers. As a result, today’s Eurozone inflation numbers and PMI data will be important to watch for clear directions.
200-SMA tests EURUSD’s biggest weekly gain in nineEURUSD seesaws between a one-week-old rising support line and the 200-SMA resistance after rising to a three-week high the previous day. In doing so, the Euro pair portrays the market’s indecision ahead of the second-tier German statistics. Even so, the major currency pair is on the way to posting the biggest weekly gain in 2024. That said, the sluggish MACD signals and steady RSI (14) line favor the pair’s latest run-up, which in turn suggests brighter chances of the quote’s run-up beyond the 200-SMA hurdle of around 1.0840. However, a horizontal area comprising the monthly high of near 1.0900 will be a tough nut to crack the pair buyers afterward. Should the quote manage to remain firmer past 1.0900, a quick run-up toward the 1.1000 threshold becomes imminent.
On the flip side, a clear break of the aforementioned support line, close to 1.0800 at the latest, won’t be an open signal for the EURUSD bull’s entry as a resistance-turned-support line from early January, near 1.0755 as we write, will test the quote’s further declines. In a case where the Euro bears keep the reins past 1.0755, the monthly low of near 1.0700 and the mid-2023 bottom of 1.0635 will be in their radars.
Overall, the EURUSD is likely to remain firmer but the upside past 1.0900 becomes necessary to reverse the quote’s previous fall.
EURUSD rebound is elusive, ECB’s Lagarde, US Retail Sales eyedEURUSD struggles to defend the previous day’s corrective bounce from a three-month low early Thursday. In doing so, the Euro pair seesaws around the key 1.0730-20 support zone comprising levels marked since early November. It’s worth noting that the RSI (14) line’s gradual recovery from the oversold territory joins the bearish MACD signals and the early February’s downside break of the key technical levels to keep the sellers hopeful. That said, a fresh selling needs validation from the latest trough surrounding 1.0695 before directing the quote toward the November 10 swing low of around 1.0655. Following that, the early October 2023 swing high of around 1.0640 will be the last defense of the buyers before giving control to the bears.
On the flip side, the support-turned-resistance line stretched from early October, around 1.0770 by the press time, guards the immediate recovery of the EURUSD pair. Even if the quote manages to cross the 1.0770 hurdle, it won’t be capable of luring the bulls as the 100-SMA hurdle of around 1.0800 will test the upside momentum. It’s worth noting, however, that any upside momentum must stay beyond the 1.0825-30 resistance confluence comprising the 200-SMA and a five-week-old falling trend line to convince the markets of a bullish trend.
Overall, the EURUSD pair remains well beneath the key support-turned-resistances and hence any recovery below 1.0830 remains unconvincing.
EURUSD slides beneath key support as Fed’s Powell defends hawksEURUSD dropped to the lowest level in two months after Federal Reserve (Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell firmly pushed back the March rate cut. The same allowed the Euro pair to keep the previous day’s downside break of a 1.0810 support confluence comprising the 200-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a four-month-old rising trend line. Additionally keeping the sellers hopeful are the bearish MACD signals. However, the below 50.0 level of the RSI (14) line raises doubts about the downside momentum and hence the bears need validation from December’s low of around 1.0720 to tighten the grips. Following that, October’s high of 1.0695 and early November swing low surrounding 1.0655 will be in the spotlight.
Alternatively, the EURUSD rebound needs acceptance from the support-turned-resistance confluence of around 1.0810 and the US ISM Services PMI. Even so, a downward-sloping resistance line from early January, close to 1.0875 at the latest, quickly followed by the 1.0900 threshold, will act as the final defense of the Euro sellers before giving control to the bulls. It’s worth noting, however, that the quote’s successful trading above 1.0900 enables the buyers to aim for the 1.1000 psychological magnet and November’s peak near 1.1020.
Overall, EURUSD teases bears on hawkish Fed concerns but the road toward the south appears long and bumpy.

EURUSD tests falling wedge ahead of Eurozone GDPEURUSD stays pressured within a three-week-old falling wedge bullish chart formation as the pair traders await the first readings of German and the Eurozone Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for Q4 2024 early Tuesday. In doing so, the quote fades the previous day’s corrective bounce off the stated pattern’s bottom line while portraying a third consecutive weekly loss so far. It’s worth noting, however, that the recently downbeat RSI and MACD signals suggest weakness in the bearish trend and hence a quick run-up on the upbeat prints of GDP can’t be ruled out. In that case, the previous support line stretched from early November, now resistance around 1.0880, will restrict the immediate upside of the Euro pair. Following that, the falling wedge’s top line surrounding 1.0900 and the 200-SMA level of 1.0935 will be crucial to watch as the final battle points for the bears before giving control to the buyers.
Alternatively, the aforementioned wedge’s lower line of around 1.0800 puts a floor under the EURUSD price. Following that, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the November-December upside, near 1.0760, will precede the 78.6% Fibonacci ratio surrounding 1.0650 to act as the last defense of the pair buyers. In a case where the quote remains bearish past 1.0650, the pair’s lows marked in November and October, respectively near 1.0515 and 1.0450, will lure the sellers.
To sum up, EURUSD portrays a bullish chart formation ahead of the bloc’s key growth data.
EURUSD rebound needs validation from 1.0940 to convince bullsEURUSD extends recovery from a five-week low while defending the previous day’s bounce off a one-month-old falling wedge’s bottom line. The Euro pair’s recovery also traces the RSI (14) line, as well as justifies the impending bull cross on the MACD indicator, which in turn suggests further advances of the major currency pair. However, the 200-SMA hurdle surrounding 1.0920 guards the immediate upside of the quote. Following that, an ascending resistance line stretched from early November, previous support near 1.0940, will join the top line of an aforementioned bullish chart pattern, namely the falling wedge, to challenge the buyers. In a case where the pair remains firmer past 1.0940, the 1.1010-15 region and the previous monthly high of near 1.1140 could act as intermediate halts during the run-up towards the theoretical target of the falling wedge, close to 1.1240
On the flip side, EURUSD sellers remain off the table unless they witness a clear rejection of the falling wedge chart pattern, via a downside break of the stated formation’s bottom line surrounding 1.0840. In that case, the early November swing high and the previous monthly low, respectively near 1.0755 and 1.0720, will lure the Euro bears. It should be noted that the quote’ sustained weakness past 1.0720 will make it vulnerable to slump toward October 2023 bottom near 1.0450.
To sum up, EURUSD pares recent losses but the bulls are far from taking control.
EURUSD bulls remain unconvinced despite recent reboundEURUSD remains mildly bid within a 10-week-old bullish channel as market players seek more clues to justify the previous day’s strong US inflation report, as well as comforting comments from ECB President Christine Lagarde. That said, the 21-SMA and Thursday’s Doji prods the Euro bulls amid bearish MACD signals. Even if the pair buyers manage to cross the 1.0985 immediate SMA hurdle, November’s peak of around 1.1020 and the previous monthly high surrounding 1.1140 will test the upside momentum. Following that, the aforementioned channel’s top line, close to 1.1220 at the latest, will act as a tough nut to crack for the buyers.
Alternatively, the EURUSD pullback needs to defy the bullish channel formation by slipping beneath the 1.0910 support to convince sellers. Even so, the 200-SMA support of 1.0845 can challenge the Euro bears before giving them control. In that case, December’s bottom of 1.0723 and October’s peak of near 1.0700 will be the final defenses of the buyers ahead of directing prices toward the yearly low marked in October around 1.0450.
Overall, EURUSD manages to consolidate the previous weekly loss and defends the bullish chart formation but the recovery appears fishy and hence needs confirmation from 21-SMA.
EURUSD licks its wounds at fortnight-low ahead of Fed MinutesEURUSD dropped the most in three weeks on Tuesday after a downside break of an ascending trend line from mid-November and the 50-SMA. Adding strength to the downside bias are the bearish MACD signals. However, the nearly oversold RSI (14) line joins the 100-SMA support of 1.0935 to restrict short-term declines of the Euro pair. Even if the pair slides beneath 1.0935, the bottom line of a two-month-long bullish channel, close to 1.0840 at the latest, acts as the last defense of the pair buyers. Following that, the bears will be able to aim for the previous monthly low surrounding 1.0725.
Meanwhile, the EURUSD pair’s recovery hinges on the quote’s ability to stay beyond the 1.1020-25 resistance confluence comprising the 50-SMA and previous support line stretched from December 18. In a case where the Euro bulls keep the reins past 1.1025, the previous monthly high near 1.1140 and the aforementioned channel’s top line, around 1.1160 by the press time, will gain the market’s attention ahead of the year 2023 peak surrounding 1.1275.
Overall, the EURUSD pair is likely to recover unless the Fed Minutes bolster the US Dollar strength, which is least expected. It’s worth noting, however, that the upside room appears limited.
EURUSD justifies key resistance break at multi-day topEURUSD remains firmer at the highest level since late July while justifying the previous day’s upside break of a four-month-long previous key resistance line, now support around 1.1040. Adding strength to the upside bias are the bullish MACD signals and broad fundamental weakness of the US Dollar, especially amid the Fed rate cut concerns. The same suggests the quote’s further advances toward the late July swing high surrounding 1.1150 and then to 1.1200. It’s worth noting, however, that the overbought RSI (14) line and an upward-sloping trend line stretched from early February, close to 1.1260 by the press time, could challenge the Euro pair buyers afterward. In a case where the quote remains firmer past 1.1260, the odds of witnessing a fresh yearly high, currently around 1.1275-80, can’t be ruled out.
On the contrary, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of the July-October downside near 1.1100 puts a floor under the EURUSD prices ahead of the resistance-turned-support line of around 1.1040. Following that, the 61.8% Fibonacci ratio and the late August peak, respectively near 1.0960 and 1.0945, will test the bears before giving them control. However, the pair buyers remain hopeful unless they witness a daily closing beneath the 1.0840 support confluence comprising the 200-SMA and an ascending trend line from early November.
Overall, the EURUSD buyers are likely to keep the reins even if the upside room appears limited.
