EUR/USD Price Analysis: Bulls are not out of the woods, despite reclaiming 1.0700
- EUR/USD rises due to US GDP shortfall and elevated inflation data.
- Technical resistance near 50 and 200-day MAs at 1.0805/07; 100-DMA at 1.0848 next hurdle.
- Downside below 1.0694 could retest year's low at 1.0601, possibly extending to 1.0516.
On Thursday, the Euro rose against the US Dollar after US economic data portrayed the economy as weaker than expected. At the same time, the inflation figure prompted investors to price out the Federal Reserve's rate cuts in 2024. At the time of writing, the EUR/USD trades at 1.0729, up by 0.29%.
EUR/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook
From a technical standpoint, the EUR/USD remains bearishly biased, but in the short term, it could test the confluence of the 50 and 200-day moving averages (DMAs) at 1.0805/07. If buyers clear that stir resistance, buyers must crack the 100-DMA at 1.0848. Subsequent gains are seen above that level, with the 1.0900 mark up next.
On the flip side, if EUR/USD sellers drag the spot price below the February 14 low of 1.0694, that would pave the way toward the year-to-date (YTD) low of 1.0601, followed by the November 1, 2023, intermediate support at 1.0516.
