EUR/USD Analysis
The anticipation and actual effect of last week’s U.S. rate hike had the effect of moving price down from 1.1050, with a fresh push down off 1.0950. This brought the price down to within just a pip or two away from the key support zone at around 1.0800, and the price has subsequently moved up from there and appears to be set for a continued slow rise as at the time of writing. We can expect resistance at 1.0900 and also at 1.0950 so it looks like the price is going to bump into the first level fairly soon, where it may well reverse.
In the unlikely event that the price falls sharply, we just might reach 1.0810 which should be supportive especially during the first half of the London session.
This pair has been behaving quite technically so can be expected to respect levels today, especially in the absence of any high-impact news.
There is nothing due today concerning either the EUR or the USD.
