"There has been little in the way of positive press since Friday, and as such, markets have started the week as they finished the last - with a decided air of risk aversion"- RBC Capital Markets (based on MarketWatch)
Pair's Outlook
Friday bearishness of EUR/USD has been halted by support at 1.2106. Although, given that majority of technical indicators continue to point to the downside, this level is likely to give in and thus pave the way towards 1.2051 and 1.2012/1.1976. In case of strong recovery the pair will encounter resistances at 1.2187 and 1.2262.
