Since then, the market is consolidating the recent gains in a narrow range. Please notice, the bulls are now testing the short-term trendline resistance from below as well as the level of 1.1210 is very close to this line. Moreover, the rally might be terminated soon, despite the strong and positive momentum, the market is in the overbought conditions.

Although the higher timeframes trend remains bearish, the global investors must take into account, that the EUR/USD might be finally breaking up from the multi-month Ending Diagonal pattern.

The key short-term levels are technical support at the level of 1.1040 and the technical resistance at the level of 1.1267.
