EUR/USD Price Analysis: Holding Above 1.0800, Testing the Descending Channel’s Upper Boundary
The EUR/USD pair has eased back from its recent gains, trading near 1.0810 in the Asian session on Tuesday. On the daily chart, the pair is currently testing the upper boundary of the descending channel, hinting at a potential reinforcement of a bearish trend.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), a key momentum indicator, is hovering slightly above 30. Should the RSI dip below this level, it would indicate an oversold state, suggesting a possible upward correction for the EUR/USD in the near term.
Further indicating bearish momentum, the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) remains below the 14-day EMA. This setup aligns with ongoing downward price pressure and reflects weaker short-term momentum.
On the downside, the pair finds immediate support near the psychologically significant 1.0800 level, aligning with the upper boundary of the descending channel. If the price reenters this channel, it could prompt a further decline toward the 1.0600 level.
A drop below 1.0600 could amplify selling pressure, potentially driving the pair down to the lower boundary of the descending channel around 1.0680.
For resistance, the EUR/USD pair faces an initial hurdle at the nine-day EMA around 1.0826, followed by the 14-day EMA at 1.0855. A breakout above these levels might see the pair move toward the 1.0900 mark.
