SocGen: Chart: EUR/USD Make or Break at 1.1180-1.1140

By eFXdata  —  May 08 - 01:00 PM

Synopsis:

SocGen sees EUR/USD at a technical crossroads, with 1.1180–1.1140 serving as a pivotal support zone. A hold at this level could preserve the broader uptrend, while a break lower would likely signal deeper corrective pressure.

Key Points:

  • Uptrend Pausing: EUR/USD’s rally stalled near 1.1570, and daily MACD momentum has softened, now below its trigger line—suggesting fading upside momentum.

  • Support Zone in Focus: The trendline from 2023 intersects near 1.1180–1.1140, making it a "make-or-break" zone for the pair. A successful defense here could reignite bullish momentum.

  • Upside Levels: If 1.1425 (recent pivot high) is cleared, the path could open up towards 1.1570 again, with a potential extension to 1.1725.

Conclusion:

SocGen stresses that EUR/USD must hold above 1.1180 to preserve its bullish structure. A break below could usher in a deeper correction, but a bounce would reinforce the case for a renewed leg higher. Watch price action closely at this zone.
