I've initiated a short position on EUR/USD in the short term, guided by a confluence of technical indicators. Firstly, the currency pair is trading below the crucial 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) on the hourly chart (H1), indicating a potential shift in momentum favoring the downside.
Furthermore, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dipped below the 50 mark, underscoring a bearish sentiment and suggesting a potential continuation of the downward trend. Adding to this, there is a notable barrier at the 1.1000 level, acting as a strong resistance point. The convergence of these technical factors strengthens my conviction in the likelihood of a downward movement in the EUR/USD pair in the short term.
