EURUSD

Further recovery cannot be ruled out, as daily slow Stochastic is heading north, after reversing from oversold zone, with potential probes above trendline resistance, now at 1.1055, expected to find strong barriers at 1.1082, falling daily 10SMA that formed Golden Cross and 200SMA 1.1107, which is expected to cap extended rallies.
Downside remains at risk, as bearish signal was given by strong bearish monthly close, with prolonged consolidation, signaled by weekly long-legged Doji and failure to close below monthly wedge support line, expected to precede fresh leg lower.
