Bearish momentum prevails amid oversold signals and resistance tests
EUR/USD is trading below key moving averages, with the Ichimoku Kijun level at $1.1595 serving as the nearest resistance. Momentum indicators on the daily chart, including both MACD and ADX, confirm strong bearish momentum. RSI and CCI remain in sell zones, while the Stoch RSI displays an overbought signal, suggesting the possibility of short-term rebound attempts despite prevailing downside pressure. BBP continues to indicate seller dominance, and the pair trades at session lows after completing an intraday pullback from earlier highs.
Sideways range expected as breakout risks favor further downside
Over the short term, price action in EUR/USD is expected to remain within a typical volatility band of $1.1450 to $1.1490 over the next five sessions. The probability of a sustained upward move is assessed at less than 20%, with further downside moves more likely. The baseline scenario anticipates sideways trading inside this range. A break above the $1.1595 resistance could shift the trend towards the SMA-20, while a move below $1.1450 may accelerate the decline if selling momentum persists.
Earlier, analysts noted that bearish momentum continued to dominate EUR/USD, with persistent downside pressure prevailing across multiple timeframes. The current article reinforces this negative bias and highlights that traders should watch for a decisive move below $1.1450, as this could intensify downside risk in the days ahead.
