Yesterday the EURUSD made indecisive movement by opened and closed at almost the same price (1.4682 and 1.4677).

A consistent move above 1.4767 level could open the door for a further upside correctional move towards 1.4820 then 1.4975. Initial support at 1.4658 followed by 1.4614. CCI in neutral area on 4h chart.
