EURUSD forecast

On the H4 chart, EURUSD rebounded from resistance at 1.0490, completing a downward wave structure targeting 1.0344. This marks the estimated target for the first wave of the decline. Today, 19 December 2024, a narrow consolidation range could form around 1.0360, with a possible extension down to 1.0338.

This level is considered pivotal for EURUSD during this wave. Currently, the market has declined from the central line of the price envelope at 1.0533, achieving the calculated wave target of 1.0344.
