In line with expectations, the currency exchange rate managed to break to the top, crossing the 100-hour SMA plus another resistance level near 1.1810. During the two-day surge the pair even formed a little ascending channel. 

But due to referendum on independence in Catalonia the Euro lost 0.3% against the Dollar and fell out of the channel. 

The fact that now the pair is located below a combination of the 55- and 100-hour SMAs, suggests that might continue to the move to the bottom. 

The downfall might be additionally spurred by the official comments from the EU, Catalan and Spanish governments through the day. 

However, this event is unlikely to change the general scenario, according to which the rate is expected to continue to climb to the top after bouncing off from the 100% Fibo at 1.1715.
