FX.co ★ EUR/USD Forecast on 19th May

EUR/USD has preserved its bullish momentum in the second half of the day on Thursday and touched its highest level in more than a week above 1.0580. Pressured by falling US Treasury bond yields, the US Dollar Index is down 1% on the day below 103.00, fueling the pair's rally.

EUR/USD is trading at the upper end of its weekly range, with limited bullish potential. The daily chart shows that it is meeting sellers around a firmly bearish 20 SMA for a third consecutive day, while the longer ones remain far above the latter. The Momentum indicator consolidates around its midline while the RSI heads modestly higher within negative levels, failing to confirm buying strength.

EUR/USD is mildly bullish according to the 4-hour chart. Technical indicators advance within positive levels, although they are currently below their weekly highs. At the same time, the pair advanced beyond a bearish 100 SMA after meeting buyers around a bullish 20 SMA. An upward continuation seems more likely once the pair overcomes 1.0575, the immediate resistance level.

Support levels: 1.0510 1.0470 1.0430

Resistance levels: 1.0575 1.0620 1.0660
