EUR/USD technical analysis
Looking at the 4-hour chart, the pair settled below the 1.0350 level, the 100 simple moving average (red, 4-hour), and the 200 simple moving average (green, 4-hour). The bears seem to be in control and might aim for more losses.
On the downside, immediate support sits near the 1.0210 level. The next key support sits near the 1.0200 level. Any more losses could send the pair toward the 1.1165 level.
On the upside, the pair seems to be facing hurdles near the 1.0270 level. The next major resistance is near the 1.0300 level. A close above the 1.0300 level could set the tone for another increase. In the stated case, the pair could even clear the 1.0350 resistance and the 100 simple moving average (red, 4-hour).
