EURUSD Technical Levels to Watch

EURUSD trades close to daily high but below the critical 100-day moving average which pierced yesterday during the US session. On the technical side the momentum now is neutral as the pair trades between the 50 and 100-day moving averages. The rebound from two-year lows at 1.0878 stalled at 1.1172 amid support that risky assets found on better news from US-China trade tensions and Brexit.

On the downside, immediate support stands at 1.1066 daily lows, a break below might attract more sellers to join the action that may drive the price down to 1.1038 the 50-day moving average. On the upside, immediate resistance stands at 1.1092 today’s high, a break above can lead prices up to 1.1119 the 100-day moving average below an attempt for the 1.1179 monthly high.
