  • The U.S. economy slowed less than initially thought in the first quarter. Gross domestic product increased at a 1.2 percent annual rate instead of the 0.7 percent pace reported last month.
     
  • The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against six major rivals, was up 0.11 percent to 97.357.While euro slipped to a 1-week low of $1.1161 against the greenback.
     
  • The ongoing weakness is set to continue for this pair as the resistance level at 1.1224 is likely to act as strong barrier to the bulls and bring a further decline towards lower levels.
     
  • To the upside, the immediate resistance can be seen at 1.1191, a break above this level would expose the pair to next resistance level at 1.1224.
     
  • To the downside, immediate support can be seen at 1.1159, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.1115.
