EUR/USD To make or break

During the past week EUR/USD continued to develop between the April bullish trend line and the September bearish one. As seen on the daily chart the price touched, but couldn’t break the support provided by the first trend line and meanwhile is standing well above November’s low.the levels of support around 1.1800 were tested and were broken, but more significant challenge is the area around 1.1720 – 1.1730, because there is confluence of horizontal and trend-line support. So this is the place for pair to make it or break it.
On the same chart the 20-day SMA and 100-day SMA are staying flat above the current price movement and are providing resistance at 1.1800 – 1.1825, while the 200-day SMA is keeping bullish stance. RSI is located around 45 and has lost directional strength. Stochastic is displaying strong bearish momentum and is nearing extreme negative territory.
However the upcoming week will determine whether the bottom line would be under occupation of the bears or euro bulls would fight it.
