21:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum accelerating · RSI 28 · price 1.14569

Lower highs, lower lows; range floor broken.

EUR/USD has rolled into fresh two-month lows, breaking the 1.1478 area and the 1.14/1.15 range floor as the dollar firmed on the hawkish Fed hold and the dot-plot shift. Structure is a clean sequence of lower highs and lower lows with ATR(14) expanding, signalling the down-move is extending rather than compressing. Price sits well below EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI deep toward oversold.

Support: 1.1450, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1500, 1.1518

What it said to watch

  • Sustained close back above 1.1500 psych would question the breakout
  • Failure to hold the 1.14 range floor opens the lower half of the handle
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 GMT and ECB speakers (Lane/Cipollone) could shift this read

21:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum extending · RSI 28 · price 1.14569

Lower highs, lower lows; broke below 1.1478 floor.

EUR/USD sliced through the 1.1478 two-month floor as USD recoupled with rates after the hawkish Fed hold, extending the leg down to fresh lows near 1.1451. ATR(14) is expanding and price sits well below both EMAs, confirming a downtrend in force. The prior multi-week range base at 1.1478 now acts as overhead resistance.

Support: 1.14509, 1.1450, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1478

What it said to watch

  • A reclaim above 1.1478 would invalidate the breakdown read
  • Failure to hold 1.1450 confirms continuation toward the 1.14 handle
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 GMT and ECB speakers could shift this read

17:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum extending · RSI 31 · price 1.14701

Lower highs and lower lows, fresh range low.

EURUSD was routed through the 1.1550 prior support after the hawkish FOMC repricing, accelerating into a fresh leg lower and breaking the March-low area near 1.1475. Price now prints lower highs and lower lows with the latest bar bottoming at 1.1453; ATR(14) has expanded on the impulse, and price trades well below both EMAs. RSI sits near oversold but has not diverged.

Support: 1.1453, 1.1450, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1500, 1.1550

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1500 pivot would stall the lower-low sequence
  • Failure to hold 1.1450 opens the 1.1400 range floor
  • German PPI and ECB speakers (Lane, Cipollone) Fri could shift this read

17:01 UTC

Downtrend, accelerating · RSI 33 · price 1.14701

Lower highs, fresh lows below March floor.

Price rolled over hard from the 1.1620 area and sliced through the 1.1475 March low on the hawkish Warsh FOMC repricing, printing a fresh low at 1.14628 and closing at 1.14701. Structure is a clean sequence of lower highs and lower lows with price stretched well below EMA20 and EMA50; ATR(14) has expanded as the move extends. The broken 1.1475 March low now sits overhead as the first resistance, with 1.1500 the pivot ING flags as the range floor.

Support: 1.14628, 1.1450

Resistance: 1.1475, 1.1500, 1.1525

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1500 pivot would neutralise the downside break
  • Failure to reclaim 1.14750 keeps the lower-low structure intact
  • German PPI and ECB speakers Fri could materially shift this read

15:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum accelerating · RSI 29 · price 1.14541

Lower highs, lower lows; range support broken.

EURUSD has rolled over hard, breaking the late-March 1.1475-1.1480 support that capped the prior multi-week range after the hawkish Fed reset rate differentials in the dollar's favour. Price is printing fresh lows at 1.1454 with RSI in oversold territory and ATR(14) expanding off the latest impulse leg down. The corrective bounce to 1.1620 has fully unwound, leaving structure firmly lower below both EMAs.

Support: 1.1454, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1475

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1475 would ease the downside break
  • Failure to hold 1.1454 opens the path toward 1.1400
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 UTC and ECB speakers could shift this read

15:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum accelerating · RSI 29 · price 1.14541

Lower highs, lower lows; broke prior range floor.

Downtrend extended sharply after the hawkish Fed reset, with price slicing through the 1.1475 late-March low/channel support and now pressing the 1.1450 round number. ATR(14) has expanded as the move accelerates, and RSI sits in oversold territory after the impulsive drop from the 1.1620 zone. The 1.1475 broken low now acts as the first reference cap on any rebound, with 1.1525 the pre-FOMC reference above.

Support: 1.1450, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1475, 1.1525, 1.1550

What it said to watch

  • Sustained H4 close below 1.1450 opens the path toward 1.1400 psych
  • Reclaim of 1.1475 march low would ease the breakdown read
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 UTC and ECB speakers could shift this read

13:01 UTC

Downtrend, accelerating · RSI 27 · price 1.14541

Lower highs, fresh lows.

EURUSD is in a clear downtrend that accelerated after the hawkish Fed hold, breaking the early-Feb shelf and the late-March 1.1475 level to print fresh lows at 1.1454. ATR(14) has expanded sharply on the 118-pip flush, pointing to trend extension rather than compression. RSI sits in oversold territory below 30.

Support: 1.1450, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1500, 1.1475

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1500 round number would ease the downside acceleration
  • Failure to hold the 1.1450 round number opens the 1.12 path flagged in the digest
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 UTC could shift the EUR read

13:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum extending · RSI 29 · price 1.14541

Lower highs and lower lows, fresh low printed.

EURUSD is in a clean H4 downtrend, carving lower highs since the 1.1686 peak and breaking below the late-March 1.1480 support after the hawkish Fed hold lifted the dollar. Price closed at a fresh low of 1.14541 with ATR(14) expanding on the latest impulse leg, and both EMAs sit overhead. The break below 1.1480 turns that level into the nearest overhead reference.

Support: 1.14538, 1.1400

Resistance: 1.1480, 1.1550

What it said to watch

  • Sustained H4 close below 1.1450 confirms the lower low and opens the path toward the 1.12 zone
  • Reclaim and close back above 1.1480 would negate the breakout
  • German PPI Fri 06:00 UTC could shift this read

09:01 UTC

Downtrend, fresh impulse leg lower · RSI 38 · price 1.15113

Lower highs, swept prior low.

Downtrend intact on H4 since the early-month 1.1686 high, with the hawkish Fed flip routing EUR through the 1.1550 breakdown level. The corrective bounce to 1.1620 was rejected before a sharp selloff swept the late-March swing low (1.14775), now hovering just above the 1.1500 psych level. ATR is skewed by that single impulse bar — the broader read is lower highs feeding into a fresh leg down.

Support: 1.1500, 1.1478

Resistance: 1.1550, 1.1620

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1550 challenges the lower-high structure
  • Failure to hold 1.1500 confirms continuation toward the 1.1478 swing low
  • US jobless claims / Philly Fed at 12:30 UTC could shift USD and this read

09:01 UTC

Downtrend, bounce off lows · RSI 42 · price 1.15113

Lower highs, fresh lower low at 1.1477.

Lower-high structure dominates the window, and the hawkish-Warsh Fed repricing sliced EUR/USD through 1.1550 and printed a fresh lower low at 1.1477. Price swept below the 1.1500 round level and has reclaimed it, but the recovery sits well under EMA20/EMA50, keeping the bounce corrective. ATR is elevated after the breakdown bar, so volatility is expanding rather than compressing.

Support: 1.1500, 1.14775

Resistance: 1.1550

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back above 1.1550 negates the breakdown read
  • Failure to hold the 1.1500 round number reopens the 1.1477 swing low
  • US jobless claims 12:30 UTC could shift USD direction this session

05:01 UTC

Range, downside break attempt reversed · RSI 42 · price 1.15247

Multi-week range, swept below 1.1500.

Price spent three weeks boxed between the 1.1500 April low and the 1.1600 pivot before the latest session spiked down to 1.14775 and reclaimed the figure, closing back at 1.15247 — a sweep of the range floor rather than a clean break so far. The leg lower came as a hawkish Warsh-led Fed and a hot US retail sales print firmed the dollar. ATR(14) expanded sharply on the drop while price sits below both the EMA20 and EMA50.

Support: 1.1500, 1.14775

Resistance: 1.1600, 1.16213

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back below 1.1500 confirms the April-low break and opens the path toward 1.12
  • Reclaim and hold of the 1.1600 pivot negates the downside attempt
  • ECB speakers (Lane 12:15 UTC) and US jobless claims could shift this read

05:01 UTC

Rolling over, range break lower · RSI 36 · price 1.15247

Broke 1.1550 base, testing april low.

EUR/USD broke down from the multi-week 1.1530-1.1620 consolidation after the hawkish Warsh-led Fed and a strong US retail sales beat firmed the dollar; the last bar drove a sharp impulse to 1.14775 before a bounce closed at 1.15247, sitting right on the 1.1500 April low. ATR(14) is expanding as the move accelerates, with price now below both EMA20 and EMA50.

Support: 1.1500, 1.14775

Resistance: 1.1600, 1.16213

What it said to watch

  • H4 close below 1.1500 april low confirms the lower-low and opens the path toward 1.12
  • Reclaim of 1.1600 pivot would negate the breakdown
  • ECB-speaker slate (Nagel, Lane) and US jobless claims could shift this read

01:01 UTC

Range breaking lower · RSI 38 · price 1.15105

Range floor at 1.1500 swept, recovery in progress.

Price held a 1.1500–1.1690 range for the better part of three weeks before the latest bar drove sharply through the 1.1500 floor to 1.14775, then snapped back to close just above it — a sweep of the range low into firm post-FOMC USD strength. ATR(14) has expanded on that move and price sits below both EMA20 and EMA50, with the rejected highs near 1.1620 capping the prior recovery. The 1.1500 reclaim keeps the break in question for now.

Support: 1.1500, 1.14775

Resistance: 1.1621

What it said to watch

  • H4 close back below 1.1500 confirms the range break toward 1.14775
  • Reclaim and hold above 1.1620 negates the downside break
  • US jobless claims at 12:30 UTC could shift the USD read

01:01 UTC

Downtrend developing, range breaking lower · RSI 38 · price 1.15105

Range break below 1.1500 pivot.

Price held a multi-week 1.1500–1.1690 range until the latest bar sliced through the 1.1500 April low on a sharp bearish candle, with USD firm post-FOMC after Warsh's hawkish hold and beat on retail sales. The brief tag of 1.14775 was partially recovered into 1.15105, but the close sits below both EMA20 and EMA50, flipping the structure lower. Loss of the range floor shifts attention to the 1.1450 area while the 1.1600 prior-support band now caps.

Support: 1.14775, 1.1450

Resistance: 1.1600, 1.1620

What it said to watch

  • Daily acceptance below 1.1500 confirms the range break and opens 1.1450
  • Reclaim of 1.1600 prior range neutralises the breakdown read
  • US jobless claims / Philly Fed at 12:30 UTC could extend or fade the USD-driven leg
