EUR / USD

We are closing the working week today. The advantages and initiative during the week mainly belonged to the players to decline. Now, the pair is in the attraction and influence zone of the daily golden cross (1.1886-54-16). On the other hand, the elimination of the Ichimoku cross is the main condition for further strengthening of bearish mood. Next, we can note the support of 1.1740 (the lower border of the monthly cloud) and 1.1627 (the weekly short-term trend).

The players to decline currently retain their main advantage in the lower halves, but still, the bulls managed to win back the central pivot level of the day (1.1835) today. Now, the next upside pivot is the resistance of the weekly long-term trend (1.1893). A consolidation above which will change the current balance of power and may serve as the beginning for the formation and implementation of the rebound from the met supports of the upper halves (1.1816-54-86). Meanwhile, working below the weekly long-term trend will maintain the advantage on the bearish side. It is noteworthy that the attraction of support levels from the upper halves (1.1818-54-86) can restrain the development of the situation in this area.
