The pair experienced a knee-jerk after the US employment data showed an increase in the weekly gauge from the Initial Claims, although it’s managed to bounce off lows and recover part of the ground lost. “For EURUSD then, the pair should have a hard time sustaining gains above its current level, near the key pivot marked by the confluence of the 50-, 100-, and 200-day moving averages in the mid 1.30 area”, commented G.Moore and S.Osborne, FX Strategists at TD Securities.

The pair is now advancing 0.43% at 1.3035 with the next resistance at 1.3208 (high Jul.11) and then 1.3255 (high Jun.21). On the downside, a break below 1.2966 (low Jul.11) would open the door to 1.2949 (high Jul.10) and finally 1.2755 (low Jul.1).
