During the second half of Monday's European trading hours, the EUR/USD broke the channel up pattern, which had guided the rate up throughout March. Moreover, on Tuesday, the lower trend line of the broken channel was confirmed as resistance.

In the meantime the breaking of the pattern did not result in a sharp decline, as support was immediately found in the late March low level zone at 1.0945/1.0965.

EUR/USD hourly chart's review

If the Euro recovers against the US Dollar, the currency exchange rate might encounter resistance in the previously passed trend line. However, it is more likely that the pair finds resistance in the combination of the 1.1000 mark and the 50-hour simple moving average. Above these levels, the 200-hour simple moving average at 1.1040 might stop a surge.

On the other hand, a decline would have to reach below the late March low level zone at 1.0945/1.0965, before approaching the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.0931. Further below, note the 1.0900 mark, which acted as support from March 11 up to March 14.
