EUR/USD Daily Price CHART (July 3 – Nov 6, 2019) Zoomed in
Looking at the daily chart, we notice yesterday, the price tested the neckline of double top pattern residing at 1.1073. This suggests if the pair breaks and remains below the neckline, it could press towards 1.0963.
Currently, EURUSD moves in the same old trading zone entered on Oct 17 (1.1060 – 1.1215). A close below the low end could lead the price towards 1.0912. Although, the weekly support levels underlined on the chart (zoomed in) should be kept in focus.
That said, if EURUSD fails in closing below the low end this could mean more of the same. i.e. more of the current sideways move towards the high end of the zone. Nevertheless, the daily and weekly resistance levels underscored on the chart should be watched closely.
