EUR/USD Analysis

A fifth consecutive lower high was made yesterday at around 1.1240, below the key psychological level at 1.1250 and the resistant zone stretching from about 1.1260 to 1.1278.

Although we have not yet broken last week’s low, the downwards trend remains intact without any question as long as we remain below these levels. A return to levels above 1.1300 would put the medium-term trend into serious question.

It is most probable that the downwards trend will continue and we will hit 1.1100 or close to that number at some time this week.
