Persistent selling pressure as digital euro efforts advance amid policy review
The European Central Bank invited industry experts to participate in the design of the digital euro’s integration across ATMs, payment terminals, and the broader European payments infrastructure. The draft rulebook for the digital euro will be updated in accordance with the ongoing legislative process, with rollout contingent on approval by the European Council and European Parliament. Work to define interoperability standards and offline functionality for the digital euro, as well as the creation of certification standards for payment tools and infrastructure, was initiated, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.
Bearish momentum sustains as oversold signals clash with neutral oscillators
Momentum indicators reflect continued selling pressure, with both MACD and ADX signaling a bearish bias on the daily chart. RSI and CCI remain tilted downward, while Stoch RSI is neutral, and BBP indicates an oversold environment dominated by sellers. The daily session shows a drop of COL$21.90 or 0.51%, with no gap observed between the previous close and today’s open and the price settling near the low end of today’s range, suggesting moderate intraday volatility and steady pressure after the open. A mild divergence is present as oversold signals and neutral oscillators contrast with persistent negative momentum, reinforcing an overall defensive tone.
Downward bias persists as low breakout risk shapes weekly outlook
Looking ahead, the expected weekly trading range is estimated at COL$4,225 to COL$4,275, reflecting typical volatility relative to current levels. The probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), making a further decline more likely. The baseline scenario is for EUR/COP to consolidate in a sideways corridor near current levels. A bullish scenario would require breaking above immediate resistance near COL$4,326, while a bearish scenario unfolds if support is breached toward COL$4,225.
Earlier, analysts noted that EUR/COP was dominated by sustained bearish momentum, with selling pressure prevailing across timeframes. The current outlook not only reaffirms this negative bias but also highlights a narrowing trading range, making a decisive move above immediate resistance or below key support a critical trigger for the next significant trend.
