1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "Our most recent update was from last Friday (04 Apr, spot at 1.1040), wherein we highlighted that 'while the upside risk is intact, it remains to be seen if EUR can break the significant weekly resistance zone of 1.1215/1.1230.' We added, 'the upside risk will stay intact as long as 1.0850 ('strong support' level) is not breached. Yesterday, EUR fell to a low of 1.0881. The decrease in upward momentum indicates the chance for EUR to rise to 1.1215/1.1230 has diminished. However, only a breach of 1.0850 would indicate that EUR has entered a range trading phase."
