EUR/USD Price Forecast: Tests descending channel’s upper boundary near 1.1250

  • EUR/USD is testing the upper boundary of its descending channel near the 1.1250 level.
  • Technical analysis suggests a bearish bias is active, as the pair remains within the confines of the downward channel.
  • Initial support is seen around the nine-day EMA at 1.1210, followed by stronger support near the 50-day EMA at 1.1093.

EUR/USD remains steady after registering more than 0.50% gains in the previous session, trading around 1.1240 during the Asian hours on Tuesday. On the daily chart, technical analysis indicates a bearish bias is in play, as the pair continues to trade lower within a descending channel pattern.

However, the EUR/USD pair has moved above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating strengthening short-term momentum. Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains slightly above the 50 level, reinforcing the potential for a bullish outlook.

The EUR/USD pair is likely to find initial support near the nine-day EMA at 1.1211, with additional support at the 50-day EMA around 1.1093. A decisive break below this level could undermine short- to medium-term bullish momentum, potentially driving the pair toward the six-week low at 1.0951 and the lower boundary of the descending channel near 1.0840. If bearish pressure persists, further support may emerge around the two-month low of 1.0778, last seen on April 1.

On the upside, the EUR/USD pair may challenge the upper boundary of the descending channel near 1.1250. A breakout above this level could strengthen the bullish bias and open the door for a move toward the April 21 high of 1.1573 — the pair’s highest level since November 2021.
