EUR/USD Price Analysis: Bulls need to keep gains above 1.1920

EUR/USD trades at the highest point in nearly three months.
Acceptance above 101920 will likely invite stronger buying pressure.

Omkar Godbole FXStreet Contributor

EUR/USD is currently trading near Wednesday's high of 1.1928, the highest level since Sept. 1.

The pair needs to establish a foothold above the horizontal resistance of 1.1920 – euro turned lower from that level on Nov. 9.

That would cement the bullish view put forward by the descending triangle breakdown confirmed earlier this month and open the doors for a re-test of 1.2011 (Sept. 1 high).

A failure to hold above 1.1920 could yield a pullback to the ascending 10-day Simple Moving Average, currently at 1.1870. The pair clocked a high of 1.1928 on Wednesday but closed under 1.1920.

EUR/USD looks weak below 1.1800

EUR/USD has slipped back under pressure, breaking through the 1.1800 support and drifting towards the weekly lows near 1.1770 ahead of the opening bell in Asia. The move reflects renewed strength in the US Dollar, with steady geopolitical tensions keeping its demand firm. Moving forward, the release of the German labour market report and flash inflation figures should keep European investors entertained on Friday.

GBP/USD threatens the 200-day SMA near 1.3440

GBP/USD rapidly leaves behind Wednesday’s strong advance, coming under heavy pressure and retesting the 1.3440 zone, where the critical 200-day SMA is located. Cable’s deep pullback follows the strong gains in the Greenback, while investors continue to pencil in a potential BoE rate cut in March.

Gold trims gains, slips back to around $5,170

Gold is now facing some downside pressure, hovering around the $5,170 region on Thursday. The yellow metal surrenders part of its earlier gains on the back of the resurgence of the buying interest in the Greenback. In the meantime, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to limit the downside potential for now.
