The EUR/USD pair holds steady around the 1.1300 area on Thursday, maintaining a neutral tone after the European session. Price action remains confined within the day’s range, reflecting a cautious market stance as traders assess the broader trend. Despite holding above critical long-term support, short-term signals are mixed, adding to the near-term uncertainty.

From a technical perspective, the pair is displaying neutral momentum overall. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is balanced near 54, indicating neither overbought nor oversold conditions. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), however, continues to flash a sell signal, hinting at potential downside pressure in the short term. The Stochastic RSI Fast and Commodity Channel Index are both neutral, reinforcing the lack of strong directional bias at present.

Longer-term support comes from the 100-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages, which remain well below current levels and maintain a bullish slope. In contrast, the 20-day SMA sits above the market, signaling near-term resistance and acting as a cap for further upside. The Ichimoku Base Line also remains neutral, reflecting the broader indecision in the pair’s technical structure.

Support is identified at 1.1280, 1.1213, and 1.1209. Resistance levels are found at 1.1312, 1.1321, and 1.1334. A sustained move above the immediate resistance zone could confirm a short-term recovery, while a break below support may signal a deeper correction in the coming sessions.

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
