Key quotes

“EUR/USD is trading below an uptrend resistance line that has been accompanying it since early July. That line now converges with 1.1425 – the currency pair's peak in early June. Breaking above this critical resistance line would open the door to the highest levels since March.”

“Momentum on the 4-hour chart is to the upside and EUR/USD is trading above the 50, 100, and 200 Simple Moving Averages. The Relative Strength Index is below 70 – thus outside overbought conditions.” 

“Resistance above 1.1425 is at 1.1495, March's peak, and then 1.1560.”

“Support awaits at 1.1375, a stepping stone on the way up, followed by 1.1350, a swing high from early in the month.”
