The decline of the Euro against the US Dollar might be slowed down by the 100-hour simple moving average. Further below, note the mentioned 1.0935/1.0950 zone and the 200-hour simple moving average. If these levels fail, the 1.0900 mark is expected to once again impact the rate.On the other hand, a strengthening of the Euro, compared to the Dollar, might result in another test of the 1.1100 mark. A move above 1.1000 is set to face resistance in the August high levels near 1.1050.
