EURUSD Outlook
The EURUSD didn’t make significant movement on Friday. The market seemed to have hesitation and wait for a significant market catalyst. We had significant gap early today as the price opened about 100 pips lower than Friday’s closing price. Technically on daily chart we have a descending triangle formation which is a bearish scenario pattern with 1.2700 key level on the downside. Break below that level could trigger further bearish scenario towards 1.2500 area. CCI in oversold area and heading up on both hourly and 4h chart suggesting a potential upside pressure testing 1.2850 – 1.2900 resistance area. US market close.

- S1= 1.2826
- S2= 1.2764
- S3= 1.2706
- R1= 1.2946

Today market opened at 1.4245 which mean we had about 150 pips gap lower. Fibonacci retracement study on 4h chart showed us that after failed to break above 50% level (1.4600) the price move to the downside and now below 38.2% level (1.4350) and should challenge the 23.6% level at 1.4030 area. Immediate support at 1.4130. Initial resistance at 1.4350. CCI almost cross the -100 line down on 4h chart suggesting a potential downside pressure. US market close.
