Windsor Brokers - Short Term Technical Analysis for Majors (11:30 GMT)

EURUSD
The Euro traded within 140-pips wide range on Friday, after US jobs data were released, on sharp U-turn from 1.09 low to 1.1041 (daily high), where strong 200SMA barrier capped upside attempts. Bullish daily and weekly close on Friday was a signal of bullish resumption, however, the upside attempts were capped and daily studies remain bearishly aligned.
This keeps in play risk of lower top formation and fresh leg lower, while correction off 1.0823 (last week’s low) remains capped under pivotal barrier at 1.1044/65 (200SMA / 26 Feb lower top, reinforced by descending 20SMA).
Overnight’s trading was entrenched within narrow range, while early European action showed fresh weakness and cracked initial support at 1.0951, (daily 10SMA), which marks the first downside trigger.
Next important support lies at 1.0900 (Friday’s low / near Fibo 61.8% of two-day recovery rally from 1.0823) and break here is needed to confirm reversal and re-expose key near-term supports at 1.0860/23 (daily Ichimoku cloud top / 02 Mar low of the downleg from 1.1374).


Res: 1.1000; 1.1044; 1.1065; 1.1100
Sup: 1.0942; 1.0900; 1.0860; 1.0823
