EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Near term bearish below the 55-day SMA at 1.1268

The pair is prolonging the upside momentum and looks to consolidate above the critical 1.1200 barrier.
The initial hurdle of relevance emerges in the 1.1270 region, coincident with last week’s tops and the 55-day SMA. The downside pressure is expected to mitigate above this region.
Looking at the broader picture, another move lower to the 1.1100 neighbourhood remains on the cards as long as the multi-month resistance line, today at 1.1317, caps the upside.
