EUR/USD short-term technical outlook
From a technical point of view, the daily chart shows EUR/USD could extend gains, as buyers hold the grip. Technical indicators in the mentioned time frame lack directional momentum, but hold well above their midlines. At the same time, a mildly bullish 20 Simple Moving Average (SMA) gains upward traction at around 1.1330, while far above the longer ones.
The near-term picture is neutral-to-bullish. The EUR/USD pair keeps seesawing around a flat 20 SMA, currently above it, yet still not confirming a clear bullish breakout. The 100 and 200 SMAs aim higher below the current level, in line with the dominant bullish trend. Finally, technical indicators turned north, but hold around their midlines, falling short of confirming an advance.
