Technical outlook for EURUSD

Technicians say the EUR/USD has key resistance at last Wednesday’s peak at 1.3578. That is the bears’ “line in the sand” through which the cross cannot pass on the upside if the bears are to remain in control of the situation. The cross has support at Thursday’s intraday low of 1.3398. The technicians say that if Wednesday’s high holds up as resistance, the ultimate downside target for the EUR/USD will be down near 1.3150. If 1.3578 is eclipsed, the bears will have yet another nail in the coffin – with only the broken previous uptrend line as a faint last hope at around 1.3595.
