Despite being driven by a solid upside momentum for the last two trading days, the Euro managed to push past the two-year high at 133.30 towards the 134.00 area. As a result, the upper boundary of the ascending channel was shifted north to include the pair's latest peak. 

Even though technical indicators signalled to a possible reversal on Monday, the Euro succeeded at maintaining them in a relatively stable position. Meanwhile, trend indicators demonstrate the weakening of the bullish up-trend. This suggests that the expected reversal might finally occur in this session, as doubts about the rate's ability to push above this two-and-a-half year peak is increasing. 

The nearest support is set by the 55-hour SMA, while the 100-hour SMA located near the bottom channel boundary could provide a stronger barrier.
