EUR/USD hourly chart's review

At mid-day on Wednesday, the rate was expected to test the support of the 1.2100 mark.

In the case of this level failing to hold, the currency exchange rate would aim at the support of the 1.2080 level, the weekly simple pivot point at 1.2075 and the 200-hour simple moving average at 1.2070.

On the other hand, if the 1.2100 level holds, the rate could make another attempt to pass the 1.2150 mark. In this case, note that the 55 and 100-hour SMAs could provide short term resistance. However, as they were broken previously, they are unlikely going to reverse the rate's direction.
