EUR/USD is regaining upside traction after defending its 50-DMA and breaking above a short-term channel, with momentum indicators supporting a test of key resistance levels, Société Générale's FX analysts note.
"EUR/USD defended the 50-DMA near 1.1065 (now at 1.1300) and broke out from a short-term channel denoting regaining upward momentum. This is also highlighted by the daily MACD, which remains anchored within positive territory and has crossed above trigger line."
"The pair is approaching April high of 1.1570/1.1610. Defence of recent pivot low at 1.1370 will be crucial for persistence in up move. If the pair establishes beyond 1.1570/1.1610, the up move may extend towards projections of 1.1780 and 1.1885."
