The outlook for the EUR/USD is slowly turning bullish after its most recent sell-off took into a strong support area. With the Tenkan-sen slowing its descend and the Kijun-sen sloping marginally lower, bearish pressure should fade, but today’s PMI data out of the Eurozone and the US will dictate price action during today’s trading session. The CCI is in extreme oversold territory and maintains downside momentum while holding on to a higher low. Will today’s economic data deliver enough power for bulls to force the EUR/USD into a reversal until it can challenge its next horizontal resistance area?
