EUR/USD reaches major downward target. Rebound in cards!

#

The EUR/USD pair plunged as the Dollar Index rallied. As you already know, the USD appreciated aggressively amid geopolitical tensions. DXY's strong rally started yesterday forced the pair to drop.

Fundamentally, the US data came in mixed today. The Unemployment Claims indicator was reported at 232K versus 233K expected, the Prelim GDP surged by 7.0% matching expectations, while the New Home Sales was dropped from 839K to 801K, failing to hit 800K estimates.

In the short term, the greenback rallied but the geopolitical uncertainty could force the FED to hike its Federal Funds Rate by only 0.25% versus 50 bps expected in the last weeks.

EUR/USD Massive Drop!

As you can see on the h4 chart, the EUR/USD pair dropped as much as the 1.1106 level registering a new low. If you remember, I've talked about a deeper drop in my previous analysis. I've said that a valid breakdown below the median line (ML) and a new lower low could open the door for a larger downside movement.

EUR/USD dropped below 1.1121 former low but it has registered only a false breakdown through this downside obstacle. After such a massive drop, a temporary rebound is natural. A temporary growth could help the sellers to catch a new sell-off.

EUR/USD Outlook!

After the sell-off, a rebound is expected, EUR/USD could come back to test and retest the near-term resistance levels before extending its drop. A temporary growth or a sideways movement could bring new selling opportunities.

GBPUSD up and down. Back down testing 61.8% and swing area.

# GBPUSD tests 61.8% and swing area The GBPUSD is in an up and down day. The    GBPUSD  moved higher earlier. That move was helped by better than expected retail sales. However the high price today stalled near the high price from last week near 1.3643, and rotated back lower on the USD buying. The subsequent move lower now has the price back toward the 61.8% retracement along with a swing area between 1.35969 and 1.36034. As I type, the price has dipped below that swing area. What next? If the price can stay below the 1.36034 area, that would be the best case scenario for the sellers with the next major targets coming in at the 100 hour moving average 1.3569 (blue line), and the 200 hour moving average at 1.35609 (green line). The 50% midpoint of the 2022 trading range is just below those levels at 1.35526 and would be a another target on further weakness. A move back above 1.36034 with momentum would have traders looking again toward 1.3618 to 1.36271 and then t...
