[ANNOUNCE] Contrary to expectations, the common European currency managed to gather enough bullish momentum to dash through the 2016/2017 high of 134.48 mid-Wednesday. [/ANNOUNCE] The nearby-located weekly R2 was likewise unable to limit further advance. As a result, the nearest northern barrier is the monthly R1 at 135.02.

Technical indicators are gradually starting to converge and decline from the overbought area. This suggests that the previously-expected fall could finally be due. 

However, the 134.50 area provided reasonable support early in the morning when the Euro tried to breach it. Thus, a subsequent surge should not be excluded from possible scenarios. An ultimate upward limit in this case could be the weekly R3 at 135.32.
