Meanwhile, it was spotted that since Tuesday Dukascopy traders have been short and are taking advantage of the decline.

EUR/USD hourly chart analysis

An extension of the decline could result in the EUR/USD looking for support in the 1.0850 level, before reaching the combination of the weekly simple pivot point at 1.0831, the 200-hour simple moving average and the 1.0825/1.0830 range. Below these levels, the 1.0800 could provide support, before the 1.0750 level and the weekly S1 simple pivot point are reached.

In the case of the resumption of the broader surge of the Euro against the US Dollar, the pair would have to pass the 50-hour simple moving average at 1.0930 and the mentioned 1.0950/1.0965 range. Higher above, note the combination of the 1.1000 mark and the weekly R1 simple pivot point at 1.0997.
