The EUR/USD started the week with a gap down, as fundamentals in Europe and the US have caused a run to safety and a subsequent surge of the US Dollar. By the middle of Monday's trading hours, the pair had retraced from the low at 1.1128 up to the 50-hour simple moving average and the 1.1200 mark.

EUR/USD hourly chart's review

If the rate surges above the 1.1200 mark, resistance could be met at the weekly simple pivot point at 1.1226 and the 100-hour simple moving average near the 1.1250 level. Higher above, note the resistance line of the February high levels and the 200-hour simple moving average near 1.1300.

On the other hand, a potential decline of the Euro against the US Dollar might look for support in the 1.1150 mark and the February and January low level zone at 1.1106/1.1126. Further below, the 1.1100 mark might act as support, before the rate reaches the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.1061.
