EURUSD Discussions

Recommended Posts

The recent ECB rate cut will bolster the Euro zone economy and will turn the current stabilization into some good growth. This will soften the euro versus the dollar in the near term. The strengthening US economy will further bring down the EUR/USD currency pair.

 

It appears that the long term indicators are bearish and there will be a downtrend.

Technical Indicators: bearish on the near term; long term

 

The US inflation and factory numbers weren't that impressive and this was the main reason behind the rise in the EUR/USD currency pair today. This trend will obviously not continue. The US economy is strengthening even though the mixed bag of data we are getting suggests otherwise.

 

Moreover, there is the weakness in the Euro zone with GDP numbers missing estimates, etc and also the recent ECB rate cut. These are essential to bolster growth in the EU, but bad for the Euro.

Euro should target the 1.2800 level on ending its recovery attempts. Support comes in at the 1.2750 level. On the upside, resistance resides at the 1.3060 level where a violation if seen will aim at the 1.3170 level. I believe EUR continues to retain its medium term downside bias despite some recovery attempts the last week.

The ECB will be the center of attention on Thursday, as the central bank releases the benchmark interest rate. No change is expected to the current level of 0.50%. Where things could get interesting is the press conference hosted by ECB head Mario Draghi. If Draghi hints at negative interest rates, we could see the euro lose ground. The ECB’s deposit rate currently stands at zero, and if the ECB decides to go lower, it would be the first central bank to introduce negative interest rates. Negative rates would be bad for the euro, as investors would likely look outside the Eurozone to get more attractive rates for their funds, rather than paying the ECB to hold their deposits.

That was a turbulent week! Euro/usd bounced from 1.2940 and traded in a range between 1.3050 and 1.31. After the news touched 1.3306 just to close the week at 1.3218. i prefer to see the move of the pair at the start of the week and then open a new position

if euro breaks above 1.3223, then it would keep moving up and may test its friday's high of 1.3280, breaking of which may result in showing thursday's high of 1.3303... the pair would remain bullish as long as it survives to move above 1.3140..

It looks like the crisis in Turkey has no real effect on the price of euro, but someone has to be very carreful about the political developmets in nearby Greece and if they are heading into a new election, that will be a huge problem for the Euro

EUR/USD is at a 4 month high. The pair peaked at 1.3390, just under 1.34 before closing at 1.3346. I am bearish on euro as the economic situation hasn’t improved, the crisis may bite this week with the discusion about elections in Greece.

after the FOMC meeting minutes, the market gave an unexpected move where it followed its technical pattern that resulted in taking the pair towards a sharp fall against the U.S dollar.... even in the early hours of trading on Thursday, the pair lost further but then remained in range the whole day..

 

as for today, the euro couldn't break its resistance of 1.3260 from where sellers entered and took the pair down by around 90 points... currently the pair is at 1.3158... the pair seems to have exhausted where a rebound is expected from today's US session or from Monday...

I sure hope the Retail Sales will take it out of this ranging movement. I guess market participants are pretty puzzled about what the next move should be after that initial surge...

      Hi GUYS, Happy Wednesday!
      I'd like to share daily forex analysis from Followme, hope this information helps your trading.
      Today, Let's focus on AUD and NZD.
      AUDUSD is trading at 0.6761; the instrument is moving below Ichimoku Cloud, thus indicating a descending tendency. The markets could indicate that the price may test the cloud’s downside border at 0.6765 and then resume moving downwards to reach 0.6635. Another signal to confirm further descending movement is the price’s rebounding from the descending channel’s upside border. However, the scenario that implies further decline may be canceled if the price breaks the cloud’s upside border and fixes above 0.6825. In this case, the pair may continue growing towards 0.6905.

      So I've been 18 for about 4 months, since I turned 18 I started up an account, and basically thought I was doing amazing because of beginners luck, put in some of my savings and managed to do well, some days I would make £200, one day I even made £900, after time I lost my profits and made a loss as well. I've realised I need to spend the time analysing the market and making technical judgments. I'm trying to read more and spend a lot of my time looking at the charts. is there any advice people can give me. and is making 5% a week a realistic goal to set myself? before anyone assumes that im looking for a get rich quick scheme, im certainly not, I see every loss ive made as a lesson and ensure that I learn from each mistake I make. 
      any advice about indicators, strategies, how to analyse the market, or even analysing earning reports would help me.

      Firebird is an indicator to identify the price spikes in the market. Firebird indicator first calculates a 10-period moving average, then shifts this moving average a certain percentage above and below the 10-period moving average. The shifted averages are drawn on chart as the red and green line. When price touches these lines, price spike is identified. Usually after a price spike, the trend reverses for some time. The indicator can be used to take advantage of this price behaviors. In daily chart usually the 10 period MA is shifted by 2 percent to form the price bands. On lower time frames like Hourly, Four Hour a smaller percentage price shift is used like 0.5% . The important consideration here is most of the price bars must be contained within the upper and lower bands.
      When price reaches above the upper red band, a sell position is opened. When price reaches the lower green band, buy position is opened. Trades can be managed with proper stop loss and take profit. In the picture, Firebird indicator is attached to daily chart of EUR/USD with 2% shift on MA. Note that almost all price bars are within the price bands. And when price extends beyond these bands, price trend reverses and comes back into the bands.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
