EURUSD Forecast – 2-July-2024
The immediate support is at the 50% Fibonacci level in the 4-hour chart. From a technical standpoint, bears (sellers) should close the candle in the 4-hour time frame for the downtrend to resume. If this scenario comes into play, the dip from the July 1 high at $1.077 could extend to the 78.6% Fibonacci at $1.068.
Furthermore, if the selling pressure dips below $1.068, the next supply zone will likely be the June 26 low at $1.066. Please note the 38.2% Fibonacci at $1.073 is the key resistance to the bearish scenario. If the bulls (buyers) exceed $1.073, the selling strategy should be invalidated accordingly.
EUR/USD Bullish Scenario – 2-July-2024
The immediate resistance is at $1.073, the 38.2% Fibonacci level. If the bulls (buyers) push and close the price above this resistance, the bullish momentum initiated on June 26 from $1.066 could retest yesterday’s high at $1.077.
Furthermore, if the buying pressure exceeds $1.077, the next resistance level to watch will be $1.080. Notably, the 61.8% Fibonacci at 1.070 is the key support to the bullish strategy. Should the bears dip the price below $1.07, the bullish scenario should be invalidated.
