EUR/USD Technical Analysis
Looking at the 4-hours chart, the pair declined below the 1.1320 and 1.1300 support levels. It even broke the 1.1280 level, but the 1.1250 support zone prevented further losses.
The pair also stayed above the 100 simple moving average (red, 4-hours) and the 200 simple moving average (green, 4-hours). It recovered higher above 1.1300, and spiked above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.1370 high to 1.1254 low.
On the downside, there is a crucial bullish trend line forming with support at 1.1260 on the same chart. Therefore, the pair must stay above the 1.1260 and 1.1250 support levels to continue higher. If not, there is a risk of a larger decline towards the 1.1200 and 1.1180 levels in the near term.
The first major resistance on the upside is near the 1.1350 level, above which the pair could surpass 1.1370 and test the 1.1400 resistance. Any further losses may perhaps lead EUR/USD towards the 1.1460 level.
