EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro trading below 1.1775 resistance ahead of FOMC


  • EUR/USD is trading inside Tuesday’s range as the market retraced about 50% of its last move lower to 1.1730 made in the last 24 hours.
  • The 1.1775 intraday supply level of the last two days is seen as the next likely resistance after which 1.1821 current’s week high should offer resistance as well. 
  • A strong breakout below the key 1.1730 level should open the gates to a larger sell-off with FOMC being the next potential catalyst at 18:00 GMT this Wednesday.
