There is no high-impact or medium-impact news scheduled for EUR this week.
INTERMARKET:
EURUSD is trading well in balance with 2-year yield differentials. However, the US yield curve has shown falling yields for all maturities in the last 5 trading days, which could further increase selling pressure in the USD (bullish for EURUSD). The USD index has also failed to break above the weekly 90.60 resistance this morning.
Currency Strength Index:
While not a top-performer, EUR is trading near daily highs as positive risk sentiment generally favored risk currencies this morning. The US dollar has entered a short-term downtrend, signaling further upside potential for EURUSD.
TECHNICALS
Price-Action:
The EURUSD pair found support at the 61.8% Fib level of the latest daily impulse move and formed a double bottom pattern on the short-term chart.
Buyers started to push the price higher as the USD gave back some gains from Friday. The gains were made on relatively low volume, signaling that selling power and/or liquidity was quite low.
== HOW TO TRADE? ==
We favor a long position in EURUSD given the strong support at the 61.8% Fib level and the double bottom pattern.
Lower inflation fears and a Fed that could be on hold on Wednesday (potentially further postponing quantitative tapering) could provide a strong bullish move in the EURUSD pair.
