EURUSD traded higher Wednesday, but faded off the session’s best levels. This has resulted in a test of initial resistance around the 20-day EMA, at 1.0921. A clear break of this average would suggest scope for a stronger recovery and expose the key short-term resistance at 1.0998, the Jan 5 high. Clearance of this level would highlight a potential reversal. On the downside, a break of 1.0822, Wednesday’s low, would resume the recent bearish theme.
