Technical Analysis
From a technical standpoint, the EUR/USD uptrend remains valid as long as the support level at 1.1107 holds. This level represents the 23.6% Fibonacci Retracement (Fibo) of the August rally, which saw the pair rise from 1.0775 to a 13-month high of 1.1202.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains robust, currently at 63, indicating continued bullish potential for the pair.
For the EUR/USD to challenge the yearly high of just above 1.1200, the pair needs to close above the psychological level of 1.1150 on a daily basis. The previous high of 1.1186 may also come into play, potentially testing bearish positions.
Conversely, a sustained drop below the 1.1107 support could expose the pair to further declines, with the 38.2% Fibonacci level at 1.1045 becoming the next target. Should this support fail, immediate assistance may be found at the 21-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) of 1.1026, with further declines possibly testing the 1.1000 level.
