EURUSD short opportunity below 1.0830 ahead

FX:EURUSD   Euro / U.S. Dollar
EURUSD entered a confirmed uptrend scenario on Nov 4, 2022, rising from 0.9800 to 1.0900 on Jan 23, 2023, corresponding with a 1,100 pip increase within 12 weeks (4hour chart)

The EURUSD price now resembles a tightly stretched rubber band that could snap back in the opposite direction at any moment.

Currently, the price remained within his long-term uptrend channel (1-4h chart).

The support was tested three times:
a) on November 21, 2022
b) on November 29, 2022
c) on January 3, 2023 - remaining below until January 9, reentered uptrend without short confirmation.

Two scenarios are conceivable at present:
1. EURUSD continues its uptrend until 1.1000 is tested.
2. EURUSD breaks below MA200 (1hour chart) and confirmes a downtrend entry below 1.0830
