Hovering inside recent range, the EUR/USD shy advanced was contained by 1.3825 static resistance area, entering US session with a slightly positive tone according to the hourly chart that shows indicators heading north above their midlines and price above its 20 SMA. In the 4 hours chart however, technical readings maintain a neutral stance while a daily descendant trend line coming from past Friday’s high converges with the mentioned static resistance. Dollar weakness may keep the pair supported, albeit only a price acceleration above mentioned 1.3825 resistance would favor an upward continuation today.
