Downtrend, momentum fading near the lows · RSI 35 · price 1.12082
LH/LL chain from the 1.1711 August high; two-week base at 1.1113–1.1165.
Seven-week downtrend from the 1.1711 high on Aug 21. A lower high at 1.1654 on Sep 9 preceded the Sep 30 range break below the July low near 1.1353, which sits with the 38.2% fib as the fib/july low cap at 1.1345. Price is below a falling EMA(50), and since early October the decline has stalled into a consolidation between the oct lows at 1.1152, the 1.1113 swing low and the oct highs near 1.1242. Thursday's rebound from the 1.1113 swing low came on falling US yields rather than euro strength, as the dollar faded hot PPI and retail sales beats, with RSI recovering from near-oversold readings.
Support: 1.1152, 1.1113, 1.1000
Resistance: 1.1242, 1.1285, 1.1345
What it said to watch
- Fed Chair Warsh (Fri 03:30 UTC) is the main catalyst; a hawkish lean could push yields and DXY back above 102.00 and pressure the oct lows
- Fri 09:00 UTC eurozone inflation batch (core HICP f/c 2.5% y/y) could shift ECB December pricing
- Daily close above the 1.1285 prior high would break the lower-high sequence and expose the fib/july low at 1.1345
- Daily close below the 1.1113 swing low resumes the lower-low chain toward the 1.1000 round number
- Repeated failure at the oct highs near 1.1242 keeps the base read intact within the downtrend
