EUR/USD hourly chart's review

If the 200-hour simple moving average causes a surge, the pair would most likely test the resistance of the weekly R1 simple pivot point at 1.1293, before reaching the 1.1300 mark. A move above the 1.1300 level would have no technical resistance as high as the 1.1365 level, which acted as resistance in December.

On the other hand, a decline below the 200-hour SMA and the 1.1250 mark could result in a decline to the weekly simple pivot point at 1.1208. In addition, take into account the 50 and 100-hour simple moving averages near the 1.1200 mark.
