EUR/USD Price Analysis: Euro Breakdown Targets 2018 Lows

• EUR/USD rebound fails ahead of resistance; decline targeting support into yearly lows

Euro is down more than 1.2% off the weekly highs with the decline now looking to confirm resumption of the broader downtrend. Price is approaching key support into the yearly lows and the final hope for a near-term recovery in the single currency. These are the updated intraday targets & invalidations levels that matter for EUR/USD.

EUR/USD DAILY PRICE CHART

Technical Outlook: In this week’s Technical Perspective on the EUR/USD, we highlighted a rebound off weekly confluence support in the Euro with our focus on a larger recovery in price while above 1.16. The rally failed just above monthly open resistance early in the week with price breaking back below the figure today in U.S. trade.

A proposed pitchfork extending off the yearly lows highlights support at the November lows at 1.1554 with the 2016 high-close just lower at 1.1529- note that price has been unable to close below this range and a daily close here is needed to validate resumption of the broader downtrend targeting the 50% retracement at 1.1448. Daily resistance stands at 1.1727 with a breach above 1.1827 ultimately needed to shift the medium-term focus higher.

EUR/USD 120MIN PRICE CHART

Notes: A closer look at Euro price action sees EUR/USD probing below the 61.8% retracement at 1.1589 with confluence support seen just lower at 1.1554/58- an objective break of the weekly opening-range low has us looking for a late-week low but IF price is going to recover, this is would be the spot to watch. Initial resistance stands back at 1.1640/45 backed by the monthly open at 1.1690 and the weekly range high / 61.8% retracement at 1.1721. A break below this formation targets 1.1529 backed by the 2016 high-day close at 1.1495 am 1.1448.

Bottom line: Euro is heading back towards the yearly lows and we’ll need a daily close below this near-term support barrier to keep the immediate focus lower. IF this is just a final washout, look for exhaustion ahead of the monthly lows with a recovery back above the monthly open needed to get things going. From a trading standpoint, this could go both ways down here so watch price action heading into this near-term support zone.

If you’re already short, look to adjust exposure and bring in protective stops on a move into 1.1558/54. With the same respect, failure/exhaustion down there may offer favorable long-entries for a near-term recovery- we’ll re-asses at the close of the week.
