  • ETH/EUR is nursing declines after the pair tests 300 mark on Wednesday's trade.
     
  • The pair is extending weakness after break below 88.6% Fib, hits new 4-month lows at 300.68, bias bearish.
     
  • SEC's decision to postpone approval for listing of the Cboe VanEck/SolidX exchange-traded fund (ETF) backed by Bitcoin (BTC) to September 30 weighs.
     
  • The pair is trading 2.29% higher on the day, but recovery attempts lack traction.
     
  • Momentum is with the bears. Stochs and RSI are sharply lower. We see -ve DMI dominance and MACD supports downside.
     
  • Price action is below major moving averages and the daily cloud. Scope for test of 2018 lows at 283 level. 
     
  • That said momentum indicators have approached oversold levels and we could see minor pullback. 
     
  • 5-DMA is immediate resistance at 328. Break above could see test of 21-EMA at 361 ahead of 50-DMA at 384.
     
  • Breakout at 50-DMA could see bullish continuation.
