The forecast for the EUR/AUD remains bearish as the chances for Australia to improve relations with China are greater than the Eurozone experiencing accelerated growth. German continues to struggle, and negative news concerning vaccines and Covid-19 mutations will keep restrictions in place. The descending Kijun-sen is on course to move below the flat Tenkan-sen, adding to selling pressure. The descending Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud maintains the long-term bearish trading environment. After the CCI moved into extreme oversold territory, it has plenty of downside potential left. Will bears force the EUR/AUD closer to its next horizontal support area?
