“EUR/USD’s outlook stays negative. It still has the 1.1847 current June low, made close to the early March low and the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement at 1.1836/24, in its sights and will continue to do so while it remains below the 200-day moving average at 1.1999. Further down the April 5 low sits at 1.1738 and the March low can be spotted at 1.1704.”
“Minor resistance above the 200-day moving average comes in between the 1.2052 mid-May low and the 55-day moving average at 1.2087.”
