An ultra thin summer Monday sees EUR/USD confined to a 30 pips range, in between 1.3570 support area and the 1.3600 figure. With no data in Europe or the US to guide price action, traders keep an eye on stocks, down across the world with DAX erasing almost all of Thursday gains, and US indexes trading in red early US session. As for the EUR/USD hourly chart, technical readings maintain a quite neutral stance, giving no clues on upcoming direction. In the 4 hours chart a mild bearish tone prevails with indicators turning now south after correcting oversold readings and price developing below its 20 SMA. 

Support levels:  1.3575 1.3530 1.3500

Resistance levels: 1.3645 1.3675 1.3700
