EUR/USD - 1.0850
Although euro’s anticipated resumption of decline from last week’s 1.1018 high (Friday) to as low as 1.0767 in New York yesterday suggests early strong rise from April’s 1.0728 has ended, subsequent rebound on broad-based usd’s weakness ahead of Friday’s key U.S. jobs report would bring sideways swings.

As long as 1.0857/63 holds, downside bias, below 1.0800 would yield another fall, loss of downward momentum should keep price above 1.0728. A daily close above 1.0863 would ‘prolong’ broad sideways swings and may risk stronger gain towards 1.0925, then 1.0960/70 next week.
