Pair's Outlook
On Friday morning the common European currency had retreated below the combined resistance of the weekly R2 and monthly R1 near the 1.0880 level against the US Dollar. Due to the fact that the pair bounced off the long term resistance during this week, this can be considered the start of a medium term decline. The currency exchange rate is likely to decline by the end of the day to the combined support of the 200-day SMA, which is located at the 1.0837 mark, and the 38.20% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.0826. -
