EUR/USD

The pair again went down to the support of 1.0960. The further development of the situation now depends on the ability of the bears to consolidate under the correction trend line, then directing their efforts to exit the zone and restore the downward trend (1.0806). Deceleration, consolidation and the formation of a rebound from the tested support (1.0960) will complicate, perhaps even cancel the exit from the correction zone, helping bulls for a new approach to conquer weekly resistances (1.1144 – 1.1151).

The main advantage in the lower timeframes currently belongs to bears. The reference points for the continuation of the decline within the day today are at 1.0936 – 1.0902 – 1.0843 (support of classic pivot points). Nevertheless, despite the bearish advantage, it should be noted that the pair is in the correction zone, approaching the testing of the central pivot point (1.0995). The next reference points for the development of the correction are R1 (1.1029) and the weekly long-term trend (1.1071). Fixing the above will require a new assessment of the situation, as the current balance of power will be disrupted.

Consolidation, which is developing under the accumulation of resistance at the turn of 1.3164, is preserved. At the same time, the location of the main landmarks of this site is also preserved. The reference points for the decline are the minimum extremum (1.3000) and monthly supports at 1.2950 and 1.2830. The most important upside target remains at 1.3321 (weekly levels), while 1.3218 and 1.3270 (daily levels) may act as intermediate resistances during the rise.

On the lower timeframes, daily consolidation continues to be expressed in uncertainty, and the pair remains tied to key levels around 1.3122-13 (weekly long-term trend + central pivot point). Working above the levels favors the bulls. Their additional references within the day are located today at 1.3157 - 1.3178 (classic pivot points). Consolidation and work below key levels will strengthen bearish sentiment. The intraday supports for this movement will be 1.3090 – 1.3069 – 1.3046 (classic pivot points).
