In the previous day’s U.S. currency trading, both short- and long-term U.S. Treasury yields declined, causing the U.S. dollar to fall against the euro. The EUR/USD pair rose by approximately 120 pips from 0.9972 to 1.0096.This brought the pair in line with the recent high set on October 27. With yesterday’s rise completing a retest of the downtrend line, we will be closely monitoring the EUR/USD’s price action to see if it extends higher, possibly with some consolidation along the way.
In the European currency markets, the pound’s upward momentum has paused, leaving the EUR/GBP pair in a stalemate. The pair is currently trading around 0.8723, with the daily RSI showing a slight upward trend from the 50 midline. On the weekly chart, the EUR/GBP pair has been rising with support from the 75-day moving average, so it will be worth watching whether the euro gains strength over time.
Today’s schedule includes remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of New York President Williams at 17:00 CET, remarks by RBA Deputy Governor Block at 18:05 CET, and the U.S. MBA Mortgage Applications Index at 21:00 CET; followed by remarks by UK MPC Member Haskell at 22:00 ET, U.S. Wholesale Inventories (final) at 24:00 ET,at 12:30 a.m. (GMT+1), U.S. weekly crude oil inventories; at 1:00 a.m. (GMT+1), remarks by U.S. Richmond Fed President Barkin; at 1:30 a.m. (GMT+1), remarks by UK BOE Deputy Governor Canrif; and at 3:00 a.m. (GMT+1), a U.S. 10-year Treasury auction. We will monitor these U.S. economic releases to see if they clarify currency strength and weakness, while remaining vigilant regarding the results of the U.S. midterm elections.
