Super Mario and weak US macro data frigiled the EUR/USD pair

The initial reaction on Mario Draghi’s speech today pushed the EUR/USD pair towards 1.0933, which was influenced by the growing enthusiasm about the state of the euro-area economy.Ahead of the Wall street opening the pair dropped from the above mentioned high to 1.0850 and the current market price is 1.0879. Probably the freshly released US macro data on jobless claims and trade deficit, showing worse than expected numbers, saved the pair from further decline. 
The four-hour time frame is showing that technical indicators are entering negative territory. RSI is located at mid-lines, but has  slightly turning to north, while stochastic has moved sharply to oversold area with current location at 25. Meanwhile the pair crossed to below the 20-day SMA for first time this week.  
In case of moving below today’s low at 1.0850, next support is seen at 1.0820 (Monday’s low). Looking to the upside, recovery of the bullish trend will be possible only above 1.0920 (Monday’s opening gap) with further development towards 1.0950.
