Today's Scenario: - Early on Tuesday morning in Europe, the EUR/USD currency pair bounced back from a three-day downtrend, following the retreat of the US Dollar. The Euro also gained support from the market's apprehension ahead of the release of crucial Eurozone inflation data, which coincided with the return of traders after a long weekend.

It's essential to note that various factors, such as the talks surrounding the US default and hawkish Fed bets, as well as discussions about China's growth and the ongoing tension between China and the US, appear to challenge the market's previously bullish outlook on the US Dollar. This shift in sentiment could be attributed to the European Central Bank's (ECB) readiness to maintain interest rates, despite concerns about a possible recession, even if the latest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data for the Eurozone and Germany indicate a slight softening.

Buy Scenario: - For the EUR/USD currency pair to have a bullish session, it needs to surpass the $1.0991 pivot and aim for the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $1.1018. Breaking through the $1.10 mark would confirm the bullish trend. However, this will only happen if economic indicators from both the eurozone and the US support a breakout session.

If the bulls manage to push the currency pair further, they will likely test the Second Major Resistance Level (R2) at $1.1062, with the Third Major Resistance Level (R3) sitting at $1.1134, till we do not advise to buy EUR/USD currency pair.

Sell Scenario: - On the other hand, failing to surpass the pivot would mean that the First Major Support Level (S1) at $1.0946 becomes a crucial support level. Unless there's a sell-off triggered by economic data, the EUR/USD pair should stay above the sub-$1.09 mark. The Second Major Support Level (S2) at $1.0920 should limit the downside, with the Third Major Support Level (S3) at $1.0848 serving as the ultimate support level. Till then we do not advise selling EUR/USD.
