Possible hammer on the EUR/USD

The EUR/USD has kept a good bearish trend, pressured by the rally on the US Dollar. The Greenback accelerates its bullish momentum after the trade tensions between the US and China ease and supports the rally on the Dollar. On the daily chart of the EUR/USD we can see that the pair has dropped below the 1.1800 level and came very close to the 1.1700 level. The 55 day EMA (purple line) is pointing down and it may try to cross below the 200 day EMA (blue line), which could complete a death cross. The death cross pattern has bearish implications in the mid-term. Therefore, even though the price of the EUR/USD may pullback in the short-term, it may continue dropping. Today´s daily candle is the shape of a hammer, which is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern. If the next candle is bullish, then the EUR/USD may try to correct towards the 1.1900 level which could act as resistance.
