EUR/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1638; (P) 1.1681; (R1) 1.1711; More…..

Intraday bias in EUR/USD remains neutral for the momentum and outlook is unchanged. Even in case of another rise, upside should be limited by 38.2% retracement of 1.2555 to 1.1300 at 1.1779 to bring near term reversal. On the downside, break of 1.1617 minor support will turn bias back to the downside. Further break of 1.1525 support will indicate completion of this corrective rebound from 1.1300. However, firm break of 1.1779 will extend the rise to 100% projection of 1.1300 to 1.1733 from 1.1525 at 1.1958.

In the bigger picture, a medium term bottom should be in place at 1.1300, on bullish convergence condition in daily MACD and some consolidations would be seen. But still, note that EUR/USD was rejected by 38.2% retracement of 1.6039 (2008 high) to 1.0339 (2017 low) at 1.2516. That carries some long term bearish implications. Thus, we’d expect fall from 1.2555 high to resume after consolidation completes. Below 1.1300 should send EUR/USD through 61.8% retracement of 1.0339 to 1.2555 at 1.1186. And, in that case, EUR/USD would head to retest 1.0339 (2017 low).
