Close 1.3318

On Tuesday the EUR/USD continued decreasing with 50 pips. The European currency depreciated from 1.3363 to 1.3312 yesterday, matching the negative money flow sentiment at below -15%, closing the day at 1.3318. This morning the Euro weakened further, reaching 1.3302.

On the 1 hour chart the downward channel has resumed, while on the 3 hour chart the downward channel is intact. Break above the nearest resistance and yesterday's top at 1.3363 may trigger further strengthening of the Euro. Going below today's bottom and first support at 1.3302, however, would confirm continuation of the bearish trend, towards next objective downwards 1.3190.

Quotes are moving below the widened 20 and 50 EMA on the 1 hour chart, indicating bearish pressure. The value of the RSI indicator is negative and calm, MACD is negative and declining, while CCI has crossed down the 100 line on the 1 hour chart, giving over all short signals.

Technical resistance levels: 1.3363 1.3477 1.3600

Technical support levels: 1.3302 1.3190 1.3064
