EUR/USD - 1.1363
Despite the single currency's rise to a fresh 6-week peak at 1.1448 on Wednesday on the Federal Reserve's dovish hold, subsequent selloff to 1.1343 yesterday suggests upmove from March's 20-month trough at 1.1177 has made a temporary top there and consolidation with downside bias remains for stronger retracement to 1.1294, however, loss of momentum would keep price above 1.1278 and yield correction early next week.

On the upside, only above 1.1448 would revive bullishness for further gain to 1.1489 but psychological resistance at 1.1500 would hold initially and bring retreat.

EUR/USD hovers around nine-day EMA above 1.1800

EUR/USD remains in the positive territory after registering modest gains in the previous session, trading around 1.1820 during the Asian hours on Monday. The 14-day Relative Strength Index momentum indicator at 54 is edging higher, signaling improving momentum. RSI near mid-50s keeps momentum balanced. A sustained push above 60 would firm bullish control.
