On Monday morning, the major currency pair is trading at 1.1200.<\/p>\n<p>Moody\u2019s kept the long-term rating of the USA at AAA \u201cstable\u201d and said that the US economic security was self-explanatory, while the USD was and would be the strongest global currency. This statement should have supported the American currency but it didn\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n<p>However, it appears that market players are still in the mood for risks, that\u2019s why their interest in the USD as a \u201csafe haven\u201d asset is rather low.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to that, investors were very closely watching the press conference by the US Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, who said the American economy would undoubtedly recover but it would take much time. However, markets don\u2019t like to wait, that\u2019s why his words are counting against the USD.<\/p>\n<p>As we can see in the H4 chart, EUR\/USD is moving inside the descending channel. It should be noted that earlier the pair broke 1.1222 and formed a downside continuation pattern. At the moment, the price is trying to correct and return to 1.1222. After that, the instrument may fall to reach the target of the third descending wave at 1.1100. Later, the market may correct to test 1.1222 from below and then resume trading downwards to reach 1.1000. From the technical point of view, this scenario is confirmed by MACD Oscillator: its signal line is falling under 0 in the histogram area. After the price reaches 1.1100, the line may leave the area and grow towards 0.<\/p><div id=\"inves-2439983418\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-172518\" src=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1592\" height=\"705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4.png 1592w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4-160x71.png 160w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4-1024x453.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4-150x66.png 150w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4-768x340.png 768w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH4-1536x680.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1592px) 100vw, 1592px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the H1 chart, EUR\/USD is correcting towards 1.1222 and may later fall to reach 1.1170, thus forming a new consolidation range between these two levels. If later the price breaks 1.1170 to the downside, the market may resume the downtrend with the short-term target at 1.1100. From the technical point of view, this scenario is confirmed by Stochastic Oscillator: its signal line is moving above 80, thus implying completion of the correction and further decline towards 50 or even 20. After the line breaks 50, the price chart may boost its decline.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-172519\" src=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1592\" height=\"705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1.png 1592w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1-160x71.png 160w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1-1024x453.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1-150x66.png 150w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1-768x340.png 768w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/EURUSDH1-1536x680.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1592px) 100vw, 1592px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Disclaimer<\/u><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Any predictions contained herein are based on the author&#8217;s particular opinion.
