Starting with GBP/USD accelerating to fresh weekly lows out of the bloom, dollar gathered momentum across the board, with USD/CHF above 0.9000 and the EUR/USD at levels not seen since last February, a handful of pips away from critical 1.3476 year low. The EUR/USD finally moved away from the 30 pips range that contained price for most of the week, with the hourly chart showing an increased bearish potential as per price accelerating below its 20 SMA and the 4 hours chart showing indicators resuming the downside after repeated failure around 1.3535 static resistance. Immediate support comes at 1.3476, this year low, and a large amount of stops should stand below so if trigger, the slide may quickly extend.
