EUR/USD Price Analysis: Focus on two-month-old support near 1.1750

  • EUR/USD remains pressured around three-week lows, consolidate the biggest daily fall in a month.
  • Firmer Momentum back-up to the south-run, 50-DMA break favor sellers.
  • Bulls remain unconvinced before witnessing a break of 1.1910.

EUR/USD stays on the back foot around 1.1765 amid Friday’s Asian session.

The major currency pair dropped the most since August 17 the previous day after breaking the 50-DMA key support.

However, the quote’s further downside needs confirmation from a horizontal area established since July, around 1.1750.

Given the positive Momentum during the downside and the key moving average break, EUR/USD is likely to conquer the stated key support near 1.1750, which in turn will direct the sellers toward the yearly low near 1.1665. During the fall, early August low near 1.1710 may entertain the bears.

On the flip side, recovery moves remain doubtful unless crossing the 50-DMA level of 1.1797 on a daily closing basis.

Also acting as the key upside hurdle is a horizontal area comprising double tops around 1.1910.

Strategy bitcoin buying model faces scrutiny as STRC costs climb

What happens after a US Treasury market crash
The global bond market is under severe pressure as US Treasury yields reach multi-decade highs, driven by persistent inflation risk, heavy government and corporate debt issuance, and expanding term premiums. Higher yields raise borrowing costs and tighten financial conditions, but a severe bond selloff can ultimately shift investor focus from inflation to growth and financial stability.
Has Bitcoin really escaped the macro forces it was built to fight?
Over 17 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto designed Bitcoin (BTC) on the back of a global financial crisis as an alternative to the global monetary system outside the control of central banks, governments and traditional intermediaries. This raises a key question: has Bitcoin really become independent of the macroeconomic forces it was built to challenge?
