200-SMA tests EURUSD’s biggest weekly gain in nine
EURUSD seesaws between a one-week-old rising support line and the 200-SMA resistance after rising to a three-week high the previous day. In doing so, the Euro pair portrays the market’s indecision ahead of the second-tier German statistics. Even so, the major currency pair is on the way to posting the biggest weekly gain in 2024. That said, the sluggish MACD signals and steady RSI (14) line favor the pair’s latest run-up, which in turn suggests brighter chances of the quote’s run-up beyond the 200-SMA hurdle of around 1.0840. However, a horizontal area comprising the monthly high of near 1.0900 will be a tough nut to crack the pair buyers afterward. Should the quote manage to remain firmer past 1.0900, a quick run-up toward the 1.1000 threshold becomes imminent.
On the flip side, a clear break of the aforementioned support line, close to 1.0800 at the latest, won’t be an open signal for the EURUSD bull’s entry as a resistance-turned-support line from early January, near 1.0755 as we write, will test the quote’s further declines. In a case where the Euro bears keep the reins past 1.0755, the monthly low of near 1.0700 and the mid-2023 bottom of 1.0635 will be in their radars.
Overall, the EURUSD is likely to remain firmer but the upside past 1.0900 becomes necessary to reverse the quote’s previous fall.
