Updated daily direction for EURUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 1.08467 (S1).

Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 1.09182 or trades above daily pivot 1.08824. While to the downside, the daily low of 1.08560 and 1.08467 (S1) as immediate support levels. EURUSD need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 1.09182 may suggest continuation after recent positive movement.For the week to-date, take note that EURUSD is bearish as the pair posted lower by -0.64%.
