EUR/USD Price Analysis: Bears seeking a daily downside continuation

  • EUR/USD is consolidating as traders wait for the market to make the first move. 
  • Bears are waiting for a significant break of the current 4-hour support. 

Below the weekly 10 and 21 EMAs, EUR/USD is trading in a bearish weekly territory as it retests a dynamic counter-trendline resistance.

The 10 is on the verge of crossing below 20 EMA that would add additional bearish conviction for the lower time frames for the week ahead.  

Weekly chart

A break of the 1.1850 will be important for the summer months. 

Daily chart

From a daily perspective, the price has reached the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level in the 1.1960s and resistance structure. 

A downside continuation would be expected from there to test the 1.1850s.

Onward bearish impulses would occur on a break of there and 1.18 the figure will be a key focus. 

4-hour chart

First, the 4-hour support of 1.1920 needs to give first, breaking the 4-hour dynamic supporting line.
