The dollar rallied across the board on Wednesday, as expected, and it alleviated most of its oversold condition. Some more weakness is likely here, but the market should then take some profit ahead of the release of the all-mighty US jobless data on Friday.
Euro/dollar
The euro fell for the third consecutive day on Wednesday in line with the bearish reversal signal. The pair is pnly slightly overbought today and a further slide to 1.4000 is possible today.
Initial support is at 1.4065. This level is important and a break below would signal that the uptrend is in danger. Below 1.4000, distant support looms at 1.3925.
Immediate resistance looms at 1.4110. The next level is at 1.4180. Above the pivotal high at 1.4281 there is resistance at 1.4310 and at 1.4430.
Oscillators are declining.
NEAR-TERM: Mixed
MEDIUM-TERM: Bullish
LONG-TERM: Bullish
