EUR/USD Price Analysis: Breaks above descending trend channel, the next barrier is seen above 1.0880

  • EUR/USD attracts some buyers to 1.0825 amid weaker USD on Wednesday. 
  • The pair resumes its upside as it holds above the key EMA; RSI indicator stands in bullish territory. 
  • The next upside barrier is seen at 1.0885; the first downside target is located at 1.0795.

The EUR/USD pair extends the rally near 1.0825 on Wednesday during the early European trading hours. The uptick of the major pair is bolstered by the upbeat ZEW Economic Sentiment Survey and the softer US Dollar (USD). Investors will closely monitor the Eurozone GDP growth number, which is forecast to grow by 0.3% QoQ in the first quarter of 2024. 

According to the daily chart, EUR/USD has remained confined in a descending trend channel since mid-December 2023. The bullish outlook of the major pair resumes as it crosses above the key 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Additionally, the upward momentum is bolstered by the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands in bullish territory around 60.80, indicating that further upside looks favorable. 

The major pair breaks above the upper boundary of the descending trend channel and the psychological level of 1.0800. The next resistance level is seen at a high of April 9 at 1.0885. The additional upside filter to watch is a high of March 21 at 1.0943, en route to a high of March 8 at 1.0981, and finally the 1.1000 psychological level.  

On the other hand, the first downside target for EUR/USD will emerge near the 100-day EMA at 1.0795. Any follow-through selling below this level will see a drop to a low of May 9 at 1.0724. Further south, the next contention level is located around a low of May 2 at 1.0650, followed by a low of April 16 at 1.0600.

On the daily chart, technical analysis indicates a persistent bullish bias, as the pair moves upward within the ascending channel pattern. Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index at 68.89 sits near overbought, signaling strong demand. RSI remains elevated, which could cap gains if overbought conditions emerge.

GBP/USD knocks ten-week highs ahead of holiday slowdown

GBP/USD found room on the high side on Monday, kicking off a holiday-shortened trading week with a fresh spat of Greenback weakness, bolstering the Pound Sterling into its highest bids in ten weeks.

Gold bulls seem unstoppable amid supportive fundamental backdrop

Gold is seen building on the previous day's strong rally of over 2% and continues scaling new all-time highs for the second consecutive day on Tuesday. The commodity climbs closer to the $4,500 psychological mark during the Asian session and remains well supported by a combination of factors.

Ten questions that matter going into 2026

2026 may be less about a neat “base case” and more about a regime shift—the market can reprice what matters most (growth, inflation, fiscal, geopolitics, concentration). The biggest trap is false comfort: the same trades can look defensive… right up until they become crowded.

Ripple (XRP) is stable above support at $1.90 at the time of writing on Monday, after several attempts to break above the $2.00 hurdle failed to materialize last week. Meanwhile, institutional interest in the cross-border remittance token has remained steady.
