EURUSD edged higher on the first trading day of the week. The U.S. Greenback witnessed broad-based weakness as mixed data from the U.S. came in and market participants remain worried over a slowing U.S. economy.

On the technical side, EURUSD has traded above our previously estimated resistance level of 1.05754, but upward momentum seems to be fading. The next level of resistance sits at around the 1.06315 price region. RSI for the pair sits at 50.33, as of writing. On the four-hour chart, EURUSD currently trades near its 50-day SMA and below its 100 and 200-day SMA.

Support: 1.0493
