Technical Market Outlook

The EUR/USD pair has fell out of the channel around the level of 1.1314 and made a new local low at the level of 1.1263 ahead of the FOMC interest rate decision and press conference tonight. Any violation of this level will open the road towards the technical support seen at 1.1260. The key technical support is seen at the level of 1.1234 - 1.1222 (demand zone). The momentum is weak and negative, but the market conditions on the H4 time frame chart are bouncing from the extremely oversold conditions, so the test of the nearest technical resistance located at 1.3572 is possible, however the upside is limited. On the larger time frame charts, like daily and weekly, the down trend is still being continued.
