Higher above, the 1.0300 mark is expected to act as resistance.On the other hand, a decline of the EUR/USD could look for support in the 1.0240 and 1.0220 levels, prior to reaching the strong support of the 1.0200 mark, which is strengthened by the 50 and 200-hour simple moving average and the weekly simple pivot point.
