EURUSD fell during the course of yesterday, as the ECB left the door open for QE and said it is “watching”. This weighed on the euro. Before American traders celebrate the 4th of July, pressure mounts on the common currency.
Also the jobs number out of the United States came out better than originally anticipated, U.S. employer’s added 288,000 jobs in June and the unemployment rate fell to 6.1 % from 6.3 %. US dollar moved higher against most currencies.

Yes indeed, looks like both the ECB and the Fed working together to keep eur/usd weak.
You are right, the Euro remains under strong pressure and trading below 1.36 support today, target might drop to next round number 1.3500.

I am not sure why anyone bought after that spike. Simply look at the patters of eu on the h4 adding ma lines smooth 34 (red) and 10 (green) look at the behavior of the retraces. The market simply trades patters, we simply try to get in on top and bottoms to get the best price, when that isn't really the best trade to take. Those are the mistake I have made in my trading hobby.

EURUSD pair fell during the session on Friday, but unrequired to say since the U.S. we’re celebrating Independence Day, liquidity was extremely low.
EURUSD starting to bounce around the 1.36 level, so it’s possible to get a bounce from here, but at the end of the day, the market are still pretty tight, therefore aren’t necessarily interested in trading the pair the moment.

Monthly chart: in congestion - currently on the 10th bar. Therefore, the high of May is still a legitimate hook-entry, but only for the month of July.
Weekly chart: in consolidation with currently 6 bars. It needs a lower high and a lower low as compared to last week's bar. The lower low has been accomplished so the high of this week needs to stay below the high of last week. Then the high of last week is a legitimate buy entry.
Daily chart: There are 4 finished bars in the same (down) trend. The high of the first reversal bar will be a minor (buy) entry signal.
