Yesterday, the US dollar moved away from local lows. Sales prevailed on EUR/USD. The euro weakened against the US dollar by more than 60 points. At the moment, the currency is testing the "mirror" resistance of 1.19750. The nearest support is at the level of 1.19250. The technical pattern is still ambiguous. We recommend opening positions from key levels.
The news background is rather calm today. At 17:00 (GMT+3:00) data on the number of open jobs in the JOLTS labor market will be released.
The EUR/USD quotes are between 50 MA and 200 MA, which are strong dynamic support and resistance levels.
The MACD histogram is in the negative zone, but above the signal line, which gives a weak signal to sell EUR/USD.
Stochastic Oscillator has fixed in the neutral zone, the %K line is above the %D line, which signals the EUR/USD growth.
- Support levels: 1.19250, 1.18750
- Resistance levels: 1.19750, 1.20350
If the price consolidates below the local support of 1.19250, the correction of the EUR/USD currency pair may continue. The target movement level is 1.18750.
Alternative option. If the EUR/USD quotes overcome the "mirror" resistance of 1.19750, we recommend looking for entry points to the market to open long positions. The movement is tending potentially to 1.20350.

At the moment, GBP/USD is consolidating. A unidirectional trend is not observed. The key support and resistance levels are still: 1.31500 and 1.32150, respectively. The positions need to be opened from these marks. We expect statistics from the UK.

If the statistics from the UK turns out to be positive, further growth of the GBP/USD currency pair is possible. The movement is tending potentially to 1.32500-1.32750.
An alternative may be the fall of the GBP/USD quotes to 1.31250-1.31000.
