EUR/USD Price Analysis: Holds above psychological level of 1.0600 amid a bearish sentiment
|- EUR/USD could test the support at the psychological level of 1.0600.
- The pair could extend losses to November’s low at 1.0516 as Technical analysis suggests a bearish confirmation.
- The area around the major level of 1.0650 and the 23.6% Fibo level of 1.0672 appears as the resistance zone.
EUR/USD continues its losing streak for the sixth successive session on Tuesday, hovering near 1.0620 during the Asian trading hours. The US Dollar's (USD) strength put pressure on the EUR/USD pair, possibly driven by increased US Treasury yields. Additionally, stronger-than-anticipated Retail Sales data from the US has raised expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) might prolong its stance on higher interest rates.
On the technical side, the analysis suggests a bearish sentiment for the EUR/USD pair as the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is positioned below the 50 mark. Additionally, the lagging indicator, Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), lies below the centreline and shows a divergence below the signal line, which indicates weakness for the pair.
The EUR/USD pair could find immediate support around the psychological level of 1.0600. A break below this level could exert downward pressure on the pair to navigate the region around the major level of 1.0550, followed by November’s low at 1.0516.
On the upside, the major level 1.0650 appears as the key barrier, followed by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of 1.0672. A breakthrough above the latter could lead the EUR/USD pair to explore the area around the psychological level of 1.0700 and the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.0715.
