Pair's Outlook
EUR/USD undergoes a downside correction within a bullish channel. Our bias is therefore bearish until the rate reaches the 1.0970/60 area, probably in a week's time. There, the lower bound of the pattern is reinforced by numerous studies, including the monthly R1 and 100-day SMA. The nearest significant support is at 1.1050, represented by the 200-day SMA. In the meantime, the upside is relatively free from strong resistances up to the monthly R3.
