Key quotes
“EUR/USD has dropped below the 100 Simple Moving Average on the 4-hour chart, another bearish sign, joining the loss of the 50 SMA. Momentum remains to the downside and the Relative Strength Index is above 30, outside oversold conditions.”
“Critical support awaits at the double-bottom of 1.17, recorded in recent weeks. Beyond that line, 1.1625 was a stepping stone on the way up, 1.1540 was a swing low and 1.1510 provided support in mid-July.”
