Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) continues to grind sideways The Euro has rallied a bit during the week but has also given back quite a bit of the gains to form a less than impressive candlestick.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Market Participants Await Friday’s NFP Report After a few market-moving data releases yesterday, the economic calendar is relatively light for EUR/USD until tomorrow.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Data Refreshes Economic Growth Concerns PMI data out of Europe this week served as a reminder of slowing economic growth and set low expectations for the quarter.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Stalls During The Session The Euro went back and forth during the trading session on Tuesday, as we continue to dance around the 1.11 level. This is an area that has been both support and resistance as of late, so don’t be surprised at all to see this market go back and […]
Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) stuck in consolidation The Euro initially gapped higher to kick off the trading session on Monday, but then pulled back to test the crucial 1.10 level.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) constrained by German politics, U.S. decision on ‘DST’ tax The Euro was little changed for the week on Friday after a last minute rally averted the prospect of a close below the key 1.10 level, but the exchange rate is at risk of fresh declines in the days ahead, according to the […]
Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Volatility to Slow for Remainder of Week With the Thanksgiving holiday, it is like the markets will see a further slowing of volatility in the second half of the week.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Exchange Rate Outlook “Neutral” As Three Of The Largest US-China Sticking Points Remain “EUR/USD short-term technicals: Neutral – Yesterday’s euro downswing ran into important support just above the 1.1000 psychological barrier with the common currency bouncing back in a rather unspectacular fashion from its seven-session low of 1.1004.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) price consolidation The Euro has been somewhat lackluster during the trading session on Friday, going back and forth in very undecided mannerisms.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) Approaches a Major Barrier Following a momentum-driven decline in the early part of the month, EUR/USD has gained some ground and is recovering on the back of some broad-based dollar weakness.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) showing signs of exhaustion The Euro initially tried to rally during the trading session on Thursday but struggled at the recent highs again, turning around to show signs of exhaustion.

Euro: USD/EUR (EUR=X) seeing some mild selling pressure EUR/USD settled slightly lower on Monday to end a four consecutive day rally.
