Downside risk increases as Euro extends weakness below trendline support (1.1180) and key Fibo point at 1.1169 (61.8% of 1.1111/1.1263), after double upside rejection at 30SMA (Wed / Thu).
Weaker pound on fresh negative news regarding Brexit, drags the single currency, with stronger dollar adding pressure.
Eurozone’s Apr CPI came in line with expectations, but below previous month’s figure, that additionally weighs.
Fresh bearish momentum is building up and daily MA’s are in full bearish configuration, setting scope for further weakness, which looks for bearish signal on weekly close below cracked Fibo support at 1.1169.
Oversold daily stochastic warns that bears might be briefly paused.
Broken bull-trendline now marks solid resistance, with extended upticks expected to remain below a cluster of daily MA’s (5;10;20 SMA) and 4-hr cloud base at 1.1200 zone.

EUR/USD turns negative near 1.1850

EUR/USD has given up its earlier intraday gains on Thursday and is now struggling to hold above the 1.1850 area. The US Dollar is finding renewed support from a pick-up in risk aversion, while fresh market chatter suggesting Russia could be considering a return to the US Dollar system is also lending the Greenback an extra boost.

GBP/USD change course, nears 1.3600

GBP/USD gives away its daily gains and recedes toward the low-1.3600s on Thursday. Indeed, Cable now struggles to regain some upside traction on the back of the sudden bout of buying interest in the Greenback. In the meantime, investors continue to assess a string of underwhelming UK data releases released earlier in the day.
