Technical Intra-Day Targets for EUR/USD by United Overseas Bank (based on the article)

EUR/USD: ranging within 1.1233 and 1.1331

H4 price is located near and below 100 period SMA (100 SMA) and above 200 period SMA (200 SMA) for the ranging market condition: the price is testing 1.1331 level to above for the bullish reversal, alternative - if the price breaks 1.1233 support level to below so the bearish reversal will be started.

Anyway, UOB is still looking for the bearish trend for this pair in intra-day basis, for example:

"There is no change to our bearish view but as highlighted previously, downward momentum is not very strong and the downside potential is likely limited to 1.1145. Stop-loss remains unchanged at 1.1395 but 1.1350 is already a strong short-term resistance."

RSI indicator is estimating the ranging bullish trend to be continuing.  

  • If the price will break 1.1331 resistance level on close bar so the primary bullish trend will be continuing without secondary ranging.
  • If price will break 1.1057 support on close bar so the reversal of the price movement from the primary bullish to the primary bearish market condition will be started.
  • If not so the price will be ranging within the levels.

SUMMARY : ranging

TREND : waiting for direction

The price (H4 timeframe) is testing 1.1387 resistance on open bar for now. If this level will be broken to above by close H4 price (if new H4 candle will be opened above 1.1387 level) so the bullish trend will be continuing, otherwise - ranging within-and-around 100/200 SMA ranging reversal area for waiting for direction of the trend.


 

By the way, 1.1387 resistance level is not only resistance for the price on the way to the bullish trend to be started and continued - there are few more resistance levels above 1.1387 and some of them are very strong one:

  • 1.1395 intra-day resistance level;
  • 1.1411 intraday, daily, weekly and monthly resistance (key resistance level);
  • 1.1464 level (intra-day, daily and weekly resistance level).


Seems we need few more high impacted news event in the near future for those strong resistance levels to be broken by the price for real uptrend for example :)
