• EUR/USD extends the decline to the 1.0050/45 band.
• Next on the downside appears a potential test of the parity zone.

EUR/USD adds to the recent weakness and extends the breach of the 1.0100 level at the end of the week.

Further losses appear on the cards as well as a probable visit to the parity level in the short-term horizon. The loss of this key support zone could expose a deeper retracement to the YTD low at 0.9952 (July 14).

In the longer run, the pair’s bearish view is expected to prevail as long as it trades below the 200-day SMA at 1.0859.
