Euro Slips to 1.115 – What’s next?
The common currency fell sharply on the day and cleared the support level of 1.1200 to test 1.1150. The intraday charts point to a potential recovery, but the gains could be limited in scope. The previous lows of 1.1174 will form the initial resistance followed by 1.1217 which could keep a lid on the recovery, at least for now.
