The EUR/USD saw a 100 pips quick slide in this American afternoon, triggered by a strong upward momentum in greenback, as USD/JPY broke above 100.00. Regardless the wild moves across the board, the EUR/USD manages to hold above the base of this past months range, respecting the 1.30/1.32 levels. However, this move has definitely put bears back on alert mode, and further slides may come along the way, with a break below 1.2970, 38.2% retracement of the latest daily fall signaling a stronger midterm fall, eyeing first 1.2880 static support zone.

As for the short term, the hourly chart shows a strong bearish momentum with indicators heading south into oversold territory, while the 4 hours chart shows still plenty of room to go, as indicators head lower around their midlines. Short term sellers will try to catch the rally on pullbacks towards the 1.3050/80 price zone, yet as long as below this last, downside remains exposed. 


Support levels: 1.3010 1.2970 1.2925
