An unexpected American dollar rally and weaker than expected readings from France fueled weaker sentiments on EURUSD. Previously published stronger readings of Dutch ang Germany retail sales didn't support the European currency. The pair is already slipping more than 0.3%. At the same time, we don't see declines on TNOTE (an increase in yields), but instead the dollar index (USDIDX) is very clearly gaining. Therefore, it can be pointed out that this is partly a move on the euro, but mainly on the dollar.

On H1 intreval we can see that EURUSD declines break out a pair from major trend line, and now we can possibly see testing support levels from SMA200 (red line). Falling below 1,09 may be a signal for testing even 1,08 levels.
