EUR/USD hourly chart

An extension of the ongoing decline is expected to look for support in the low level zone at 1.0835/1.0845. However, note that the rate had paused and reversed its direction twice at the 1.0860 mark.

On the other hand, a recovery of the Euro against the US Dollar would have to pass the technical levels near 1.0890 and the 1.0900 mark, before approaching the 1.0930/1.0950 range.
