Thursday 10th December: Technical Outlook and Review
As the US dollar index climbed 91.00 amidst a deterioration in risk sentiment Wednesday, EUR/USD overthrew the 1.21 handle on the H4. With 1.21 now likely to serve as psychological resistance, along with the lack of obvious support present on the H4 chart, we could see the pair continue to weaken until reaching the key figure 1.20.
Wednesday 9th December: Technical Outlook and Review
Europe’s single currency rolled out a subdued tone against the US dollar Tuesday, as the US dollar index continues to languish south of the 91.00 handle. Bid/offers appear even off the 1.21 handle on the H4 scale, with EUR/USD suggesting either a push north to shake hands with daily resistance at 1.2165 once more, or navigating south of 1.21 to perhaps seek 1.20 bids and trend line support, extended from the low 1.1602.
Tuesday 8th December: Technical Outlook and Review
Monday had EUR/USD dip through 1.21 to test lows at 1.2078 on the H4, likely tripping sell-stops. A short-lived rebound, as you can see, triggered a run back to daily resistance at 1.2165, forming a H4 shooting star candle pattern.

Europe’s single currency advanced to fresh YTD peaks against a broadly softer US dollar on Tuesday, with H4 surpassing the key figure 1.20 and shining the spotlight on a resistance area at 1.21/1.2068 (red), composed of the 1.21 handle, resistance on the weekly timeframe at 1.2092 (a Quasimodo formation) and a H4 ABCD approach (green arrows) at 1.2068.
