"Risk aversion eased somehow, stocks struggle to trade in the green all across Europe, while US futures are also up with S&P approaching 1900 having been below it since early weekly opening, first time since May this year."
"Technically, the EUR/USD 4 hours chart shows price capped below a flat 20 SMA with momentum heading south below 100, and RSI flat around 50."
"Overall the pressure remains to the downside as long as 1.2700 holds, with a break below 1.2620 required to confirm a leg lower, towards the 1.2570 level, and steady gains above 1.2700 opening doors for a spike up to 1.2745 area first, with gains above this last pointing for a retest of recent highs at 1.2790."
