- EUR/USD hits new 2021 lows in the 1.1760 zone.
- The 200-day SMA near 1.1860 now emerges as the next hurdle.
EUR/USD’s weekly decline appears to have met a decent contention in the 1.1760 area, coincident with a Fibo level (of the November-January rally).
The recent breakdown of the 200-day SMA (1.1854) allows sellers to remain well in control of the sentiment surrounding the European currency, increasing the likelihood of further losses in the short-term horizon.
Below recent YTD lows around 1.1760 there are no relevant support levels until the November 2020 lows in the 1.1600 zone.
While below the 200-day SMA the short-term stance for EUR/USD is expected to remain negative.
