Euro Price Chart – EUR/USD Weekly
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; EUR/USD on TradingView
Euro is trading just above a major support zone we’ve been tracking for weeks now at the yearly low-week close (LWC) / low-close around 1.0641/67 and the 78.6% retracement / 2023 LWC at 1.0587/96 – both area of interest for possible downside exhaustion / price inflection IF reached. Initial weekly resistance now stands at June high-week reversal close / 52-week moving average at 1.0801/18. Key resistance remains unchanged at 1.0933/42.
Bottom line: From a trading standpoint, a good zone to reduce portions of short-exposure / lower protective stops – rallies should be limited to the 52-week moving average IF Euro is heading lower on this stretch. Review my latest Euro Short-term Outlook for a closer look at the near-term EUR/USD technical trade levels.
Oil Price Chart – WTI Weekly
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Technical Strategist; WTI on TradingView
A V-shaped recovery in oil prices off confluent support at the 2024 low-day close (LDC at 72.99) has already rallied nearly 10% off the lows. The focus is on near-term resistance here at the 200-day moving average (79.55) and the 38.2% retracement / 2023 yearly open at 80.01/31. Ultimately, a topside breach / close above 81.83 is needed to suggest a more significant low was registered this month / mark uptrend resumption. Monthly open support rests at 77.25 and is backed by the June 5th reversal close at 74.29- losses should be limited to this threshold IF price is heading higher on this stretch.
