The Euro (EUR) has the potential to edge higher in the near future, according to analysts at UOB Group FX. However, they believe it is unlikely that the currency will be able to break through the major resistance level at 1.1200. Looking further ahead, there is an increased possibility of the EUR breaking above 1.1200, as noted by the analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann.
In the short term, EUR has been trading in a choppy manner, with fluctuations in price movements. Despite this volatility, the underlying tone of the market has softened slightly, leading to a narrowing of the trading range between 1.1080 and 1.1140. The analysts predicted a slight upward movement for the EUR, with potential for it to edge higher, but they do not see it breaking through the significant resistance level at 1.1200 in the immediate future.
For the medium to long term outlook, the analysts forecast a continued upward trend for the EUR, with bulls potentially targeting the 1.1200 level. After a brief spike in price to 1.1189, it remains uncertain if the EUR has enough momentum to breach the year-to-date high of 1.1200. However, recent price movements have shown an increase in upward momentum, raising the likelihood of the EUR surpassing the key resistance level. The next hurdle for the EUR will be reaching the 1.1230 resistance level.
In terms of support levels, the analysts point to 1.1130 and 1.1110 as possible levels for the EUR to find support in the near term. Additionally, they highlight the importance of the 1.1060 level as a strong support line, noting that a breach of this level would indicate a diminishing potential for the EUR to rise above 1.1200. Despite the volatility and uncertainty in the market, the analysts remain cautiously optimistic about the EUR’s prospects for breaking above the key resistance level in the coming weeks.
Overall, the EUR has shown signs of increased upward momentum in recent trading sessions, with a potential for further gains in the medium to long term. While breaking through the major resistance level at 1.1200 may present a challenge, the analysts believe that the likelihood of the EUR surpassing this barrier has grown. With support levels in place to cushion any potential downside movements, the outlook for the EUR remains positive, albeit with some uncertainty surrounding its ability to reach higher resistance levels in the near future. Traders and investors will need to closely monitor price movements and market developments to gauge the EUR’s strength and potential for continued upward movement.
