The EUR/USD pair snaps its two-day losing streak and surges above 1.0900 during the Asian session on Thursday.

Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands in bullish territory above 50, which supports the buyers for the time being.
The first upside barrier for EUR/USD is seen at 1.0965, representing the confluence of the upper boundary of the Bollinger Band and a high of November 21. The key resistance level will emerge near a psychological round figure and a high of August 11 at 1.1000. A decisive break above the latter will see the rally to a high of August 4 at 1.1042, en route to a high of July 27 at 1.1149.
On the flip side, the lower limit of the Bollinger Band at 1.0870 acts as an initial support level for the major pair.

A breach of the latter will see a drop to a high of November 9 at 1.0725.
