EUR/USD Price Analysis: Snaps three-day uptrend, 0.9985 in the spotlight

  • EUR/USD takes offers to refresh intraday low, extends pullback from weekly high.
  • Impending bear cross on MACD, RSI retreat favor sellers.
  • Convergence of 200-HMA, support line of weekly triangle appears tough nut to crack for sellers.
  • Buyers need to cross 1.0090 to retake control.

EUR/USD bears return after a three-day absence as the quote renews its intraday low near 1.0030 during Thursday’s Asian session.

In doing so, the major currency pair retreats inside a one-week-old symmetrical triangle amid downbeat oscillators.

That said, the MACD teases bears and the recent weakness in the RSI (14) keeps EUR/USD bears hopeful.

However, the 1.0000 psychological magnet will precede the 0.9985 support confluence, including the 200-HMA and support line of the stated triangle, to restrict the short-term downside of the pair.

In a case where the EUR/USD remains weak past 0.9985, a south-run towards the monthly low of 0.9900, marked the last week, can’t be ruled out.

Meanwhile, recovery moves may initially aim for the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of August 18-23 downside, near 1.0050.

Following that, the triangle’s upper line and the 61.8% gold ratio, respectively around 1.0080 and 1.0090, could challenge the EUR/USD buyers.

It’s worth noting that the 1.0100 threshold could act as an extra upside filter to challenge the pair’s buyers before giving them control.
