EURUSD Technical Analysis

Analysis of the daily chart of the Euro-Dollar market. Ichimoku Kinko Hyo’s baseline functioning as support. Currently moving within an ascending channel, with the lower channel line as a critical support to watch.
As the downtrend is midway, a decline to the channel’s lower limit is expected. Below the channel’s lower limit, the Ichimoku cloud and the 240-day moving average line are awaited, unlikely to be easily breached.
A rebound near the key level of USD 1.0865 is anticipated, suggesting a bearish trading perspective until then.
