EURUSD drifted into the Friday close, but managed to finish with gains on the week. The early rally cleared resistance at 1.0294, the Aug 2 high. The 50-day EMA has been pierced. Price has also traded briefly above the bear channel top, currently at 1.0335. This remains a key resistance and a clear break would strengthen bullish conditions. Note that a deeper pullback would highlight bearish threat instead, and would signal a reversal lower inside the channel. Watch support at 1.0123, Aug 3 low.
