The pair is expected to find support at 1.089, and a fall through could take it to the next support level of 1.083. The pair is expected to find its first resistance at 1.0989, and a rise through could take it to the next resistance level of 1.1028.

Trading trends in the Euro today are expected to be determined by the Euro-zone’s consumer confidence data, scheduled in a few hours. Additionally, the US initial jobless claims data, scheduled later today would also grab market attention.

The currency pair is trading above its 20 Hr and 50 Hr moving averages.
