EUR/USD

Open 1.3128

High 1.3146

Low 1.3116

Close 1.3126

On Monday the EUR/USD increased insignificantly with almost 30 pips. The European currency appreciated from 1.3118 to 1.3146 yesterday, not matching the negative money flow sentiment at around -8%, closing the day at 1.3126. This morning the Euro slipped, dropping to 1.3116.

On the 1 hour chart the downward channel has resumed, while on the 3 hour chart the downward channel looks good. Break above the nearest resistance and today's top at 1.3146 may trigger further strengthening of the Euro. Going below yesterday's bottom and first support at 1.3116, however, would confirm continuation of the bearish trend, towards next objective downwards 1.3000.

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

Technical resistance levels: 1.3146 1.3260 1.3385

Technical support levels: 1.3116 1.3000 1.2876
