EUR/USD continues to weaken, as can be seen by the break of the hourly support at 1.2706 (see also the rising channel). A further decline towards the key support at 1.2501 is favoured. An hourly support can be found at 1.2625 (15/10/2014 low). An hourly resistance now lies at 1.2743 (intraday high).
In the longer term, EUR/USD is in a downtrend since May 2014. The break of the strong support area between 1.2755 (09/07/2013 low) and 1.2662 (13/11/2012 low) has opened the way for a decline towards the strong support at 1.2043 (24/07/2012 low). As a result, the recent strength in EUR/USD is seen as a countertrend move. A key resistance stands at 1.2995 (16/09/2014 high).
