EURUSD Chart by TradingView
What can we expect from EURUSD today?
EURUSD on Thursday dropped -0.08% to 1.10307. Price is above 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is falling.
Updated daily direction for EURUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 1.09933 (S1).
Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 1.10635 or trades above daily pivot 1.10284. While to the downside, the daily low of 1.09910 and 1.09933 (S1) as immediate support levels. EURUSD need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A close below 1.09910 would indicate selling pressure.
For the week to-date, take note that EURUSD is bullish as the pair continued to trade higher and is up by 0.39% over the past few days.
