EUR/USD technical outlook
According to Valeria Bednarik, Chief Analyst from FXStreet the pair maintains a bullish tone, despite the lack of upward momentum and is still poised to test a major resistance area between 1.0800 and 1.0840. “In the 4 hours chart, the 20 SMA has turned sharply higher below the current level, having surpassed by a few pips a key Fibonacci support at 1.0710, whilst technical indicators have lost their upward strength, but hold well above their mid-lines.”
