What can we expect from EURUSD today?

EURUSD on Thursday rose 0.54% to 1.05623. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is rising in oversold zone.

Updated daily direction for EURUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 1.05091 (S1).

Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 1.05790 or trades above daily pivot 1.0544. Break above could target R1 at 1.05973. While to the downside, we are looking at 1.05091 (S1) and daily low of 1.04908 as support levels. EURUSD need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 1.05790 may suggest continuation after recent positive movement.

For the week to-date, take note that EURUSD is bearish as the pair posted lower by -0.76%.
