EUR/USD
Big time frames
Reaching a new low of the current correction, the euro/dollar pair closed below the extreme of 0.9901, returning to the consolidation zone. Now, the bearish scenario is under question, whereas the bullish one neither has reasons to develop. The control levels are the same and a further movement of the pair highly depends on them. Thus, bears should break 0.9901 to revive the downtrend. Bulls should break the daily cross (1.0066 – 1.0124 – 1.0181) to receive support from the weekly short-term trend (1.0124).
H4 – H1
On smaller time frames, the euro/dollar pair is still in the zone of upward correction. Bulls managed to pass the main pivot point of 0.9918. That is why now they are focused on the resistance level of the weekly long-term trend (0.9982). If the price consolidates above this level, it may reverse, thus causing a change in the market sentiment to the bullish one. An additional target is located at 1.0028 (the final resistance of the pivot points). In case of bearish activity, the support levels will be located at 0.9918 – 0.9890 – 0.9849 – 0.9821.
