On Monday, the EUR/USD traded within a 35 pip range. The European currency appreciated from 1.2914 to 1.2949 yesterday, matching the positive money flow sentiment at around +11% and closing the day at 1.2925. The Euro descended slightly this morning, dropping to 1.2883.
The downward channel is turning into range trading on the 1 hour chart, while quotes are held within a wide trading range on the 3 hour chart. A break above the nearest resistance and yesterday's top at 1.2949 may trigger further strengthening of the Euro. Going below today's bottom and first support at 1.2883, however, would confirm continuation of the bearish trend towards the next objective downwards of 1.2770.
Today's focus is on German Import prices, France Consumer confidence and U.S.A Consumer confidence at 6, 6:45, and 14 GMT respectively.
Quotes are moving just below the even 20 and 50 EMA on the 1 hour chart, indicating slim bearish pressure. The value of the RSI indicator is negative and calm. The MACD is positive and quiet, while the CCI has thinly crossed down the 100 line on the 1 hour chart, giving overall light short signals.
Technical resistance levels: 1.2949 1.3064 1.3190
Technical support levels: 1.2883 1.2770 1.2644
