EURUSD has bounced from sub 1.0900 levels boosted by monthly profit taking and good German IFO. Additionally lower oil prices had a positive impact on CPI number (Core CPI). We are slowly entering into thin liquidity month (August) . Liquidation sales usually happen close to holiday season and the overall volume traded is usually 1/3 normal volume.
Technically EURUSD is rejecting POC zone (equidistant channel top, 38.2, previous retest, historical sellers) which marks 1.0980-90 area. The pair is held within the angled bearish zig zag which accounts for a slow grinding down trend. Rejection from the zone should target 1.0950-30 and the close below 1.0930 targets 1.0895.Momentum breakout and/or 4h close below 1.0930 will target 1.0850-30 target zone which makes L5 and equidistant channel bottom.
In order for this setup to be valid 1.1020 should hold.
