EUR/USD Technical Analysis
This past week, the Euro saw a sharp rise after it broke the key 1.1000 resistance area against the US Dollar. As a result, EUR/USD surged above many important hurdles, including 1.1050, 1.1050 and 1.1100.
Looking at the 4-hours chart, the pair gained bullish momentum after it broke the key 1.1080 resistance. The pair even settled above 1.1100 and it is now trading well above the 100 simple moving average (red, 4-hours).
More importantly, there was a break above the 1.236 Fib extension level of the downward move from the 1.1075 high to 1.0879 low. The current price action is positive and it seems like the pair could continue to rise towards 1.1200 and 1.1240 levels.
An immediate resistance is near the 1.618 Fib extension level of the downward move from the 1.1075 high to 1.0879 low.
If there is a downside correction, an initial support is near the 1.1140 level. The main support is near the 1.1080 level (the previous breakout resistance), where the bulls are likely to protect losses.
