The bullish momentum has improved, although not as much. From here, there margin for the euro to test 1.1805 first before a more sustained pullback can be expected (the next resistance is at 1.1830). Support is at 1.1730 followed by 1.1710 “.

The Momentum indicators are mostly neutral now and the EUR is likely to trade between 1.1690 and 1.1830 for now”.
