Higher time frames

Yesterday, bears retested the low from the previous week (1.0613) and closed the day below the monthly support of 1.0611. If they manage to hold at these levels, their next targets will be the weekly support of 1.0461 – 1.0416 and the lower boundary of the daily Ichimoku Cloud. A rebound from the level of 1.0611 will lead the pair to test the resistance of the short-term trend on the daily (1.0702) and weekly (1.0758) time frames.

H4 – H1

On lower time frames, bears are in control of the pair today. Their downward targets for today are found at the standard pivot levels of 1.0581 – 1.0558 – 1.0516. At the moment, there is a slight upside correction on the chart, so the price is testing the central pivotal level of 1.0623. In the course of the correction, the price may head for 1.0646 (R1) and 1.0664 (weekly long-term trend). Consolidation above 1.0664 and a reversal of the moving average will change the market balance. Other daily targets are found at 1.0688 (R2) and 1.0711 (R3).

H4 – H1

On lower time frames, the pair has recently tested the level of the weekly long-term trend (1.2039). Trading above this level will secure the bullish bias and their further advance. While recovering on the daily chart, the pair may go through the standard pivot levels of 1.2070 – 1.2106 – 1.2170 – 1.2206). A breakout of 1.2039 and a firm hold below will indicate that bears have regained ground. The downward targets for today can be found at 1.2006 – 1.1970 – 1.1906 (standard pivot levels).
