EURUSD on Friday dropped -0.08% to 1.09390. Price is above 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is rising in overbought zone. For the week ending 2024-03-08, the pair rose 0.94% or 102.2 pips higher.
Looking ahead on Monday, EURUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above week low of 1.08349.
As for the new week, our technical outlook looks bullish, immediate upside resistance level at 1.10019 (WR1) with break above could target 1.10648 (WR2). On the downside, we are looking at week low of 1.08349 as an important support. Break below this level could weaken the current bullish momentum. A break above 1.09813 would suggest bullish bias after recent positive movement.
For the month of March, EURUSD is up by 1.24% or 133.7 pips higher.
