The pair is seeing resistance near the 0.6980 level on the upswing. The key resistance is located close to 0.7000. A confirmed close above 0.7000 might pave the way for a gradual increased gain.
The next significant barrier might be close to the 0.7050 mark, above which the pair might increase to 0.7120. The pair could correct lower and dip below 0.6900 if there is no upside break. Below 0.6880, where there is a strong support level, the pair may return to the area around 0.6800. A loss would push the pair closer to the 0.6680 swing zone.
For EUR/USD, the pair is currently struggling with a significant obstacle close to the 1.0280 level and continues to be at risk of another decline as the Fed interest rate announcement draws near.
