Euro: Rebound eyes key resistance band against US Dollar – UOB

United Overseas Bank’s (UOB) Quek Ser Leang observes EUR/USD rebounded sharply after a dip to 1.1453, with scope to extend gains toward 1.1565 intraday, provided it holds above 1.1495. On a 1–3 week view, he sees potential for a test of 1.1565 and possibly 1.1600, while a break below 1.1455 would undermine the bullish scenario.

Upside bias toward 1.1565–1.1600

"24-HOUR VIEW: Last Friday, USD fell to a low of 1.1453 and then rebounded sharply to close unchanged at 1.1527. EUR could continue to rebound today but note that 1.1565 is expected to provide significant resistance. To keep the momentum going, EUR must hold above 1.1495, with minor support at 1.1510."

"1-3 WEEKS VIEW: After dropping to a low of 1.1353 early last week, EUR soared and ended the week 1.41% higher at 1.1527. The rapid rise appears to be running ahead of itself, but there is a chance for EUR to test the significant resistance at 1.1565. Should EUR close above this level, it could rise toward 1.1600. On the downside, a breach of 1.1455 (‘strong support’ level) would indicate that EUR is unlikely to break above 1.1565."
