By Research TeamAn intermediate support at 1.2730, a 2005 low, currently defends the major support at 1.2657,a Nov 11 Daily spike low. Euro longs are entering into a critical stage, as a break below the 1.2730-1.2657, will most likely see the pair retest the bids at 1.2481, a 61.8 Fib of the 1.1760-1.3667 euro rally, with a further breakdown targeting the 1.2000, a summer range low. In case the euro bulls manage to stage a counteroffensive against the greenback, they will encounter a minor resistance at 1.2992, a 78.6 Fib of the 1.2730-1.3481euro rally. A move deeper into the dollar held territory will come upon an intermediate resistance at 1.2944, a 20-day SMA, with a further advance meeting major resistance at 1.3018, a 61.8 Fib of the Feb-Mar euro bull swing. Oscillators are mixed, with Stochastic neutral on the daily chart at 56.68 and neutral at 9.11on the dealer (4HR) chart.
