EUR/USD hourly chart's review

It is likely that the exchange rate could gain support from the 55-hour moving average near 1.1690 and trade upwards in the short run. In this case the rate could face the resistance formed by the weekly R2 and the 2019 high circa 1.1820.

However, if the given support does not hold, it is likely that some downside potential could prevail. Meanwhile, it is unlikely that the currency pair could decline below the weekly PP and the monthly R2 at 1.1575.

On the daily candle chart, the channel up pattern continues to guide the currency exchange rate higher. Note that its upper trend line could provide resistance near the 1.1830 level.

In the meantime, the daily simple moving averages indicate that the pair is overbought, as the closest by 55-day SMA is located near 1.1240.
