EURUSD

The Euro returned above 1.05 handle, on profit-taking rally, following last Friday’s weakness that posted fresh 12-year low at 1.0461. Strong bearish tone remains in play, confirmed by long red candles on daily / weekly charts, keeping focus at the downside and showing so far no signals of reversal, despite oversold daily studies. Corrective rally is expected to find ideal barrier at 1.06 zone, former hourly base and Fibonacci 61.8% of 1.0682/1.0461 downleg, before fresh attempts lower. Break below 1.0461 to open 1.0420, Fibonacci 138.2% projection of the downleg from 1.0682, then 1.0376, Fibonacci 161.8% projection, ahead of 1.0335, Jan 2003 low and 1.0206, July 2002 high, with parity level already in sight. Only break above last week’s high at 1.0682, also 50% retracement of 1.0905/1.0461 descend, would sideline immediate bears and look for stronger corrective rally.
