EUR/USD extends its winning streak for the third successive day, trading around 1.1670 during Asian hours on Wednesday. The daily chart technical analysis indicates a bullish reversal as the pair is rising above the descending channel pattern.

The EUR/USD pair has rebounded above the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), framing a tentative bullish bias after an earlier downside phase.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) momentum indicator at 56 shows positive momentum above the midline, backing the recovery and reducing immediate downside pressure. This configuration points to buyers regaining control as long as the EUR/USD pair holds above recent breakout levels, with scope for an extension higher if it can sustain above the shorter moving average cluster.

On the upside, the EUR/USD pair may target the six-week high of 1.1795, reached on March 2. Further advances would support the pair in exploring the region around 1.2082, the highest since June 2021, reached on January 27.

The EUR/USD pair may find the immediate support at the 50-day EMA of 1.1632, followed by the nine-day EMA of 1.1575. A return to the descending channel would put downward pressure on the pair to test the eight-month low of 1.1411, recorded on March 13. Further declines would put downward pressure on the pair to test the descending channel around 1.1220.
