EURUSD Technical Analysis
The EURUSD pair traded down towards the 1.0820 support area before it found buyers and started to trade back higher. There was a bearish trend line formed on the 4-hours chart of the EURUSD pair, which was cleared recently to open the doors for more gains in the near term.
However, the pair is currently finding a major barrier near a confluence area of the 100 and 200 simple moving average on the 4-hours chart.
Moreover, the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the 1.1375 high to 1.0824 low is also around the 100 MA. So, the 1.1040 level may act as a major barrier for more gains moving ahead.

Today, the HIA/AiG Performance of Construction Index, which is considered as an indicator that measures the conditions on the short and medium term in the construction market was released by the
Australian Industry Group and the Housing Industry Association. The outcome was not on the higher side, as the HIA/AiG Performance of Construction Index dropped from the last reading of 46.3 to 46.1 in Feb 2016.
