EUR/USD Price Analysis: Immediate resistance appears at nine-day EMA above 1.0400

  • EUR/USD may depreciate further as the short-term price momentum is weaker.
  • The initial support appears at its two-year low of 1.0332, recorded on November 22.
  • The nine-day EMA acts as immediate resistance at the 1.0417 level.

EUR/USD recovers its recent losses from the previous session, trading around 1.0410 during the European hours on Tuesday. A review of the daily chart shows an ongoing bearish bias as the pair is confined within a descending channel pattern.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), a key momentum indicator, remains below the 50 level, confirming the persistent bearish sentiment for the EUR/USD pair. Additionally, the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is below the 14-day EMA, suggesting the short-term price momentum is weaker.

On the downside, the two-year low at 1.0332, which was recorded on November 22, appears as a primary support for the EUR/USD pair. A successful break below this level could reinforce the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the pair to navigate the area around the lower boundary of the descending channel at the 1.0010 level.

In terms of resistance, the EUR/USD pair tests an immediate barrier at the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the 1.0417 level, followed by the 14-day EMA at the 1.0433 level. A breakthrough above these EMAs could lead the pair to approach the descending channel’s upper boundary at 1.0500, followed by its seven-week high of 1.0630 level.
