23.02.2023

Today's Highlights
  1. Bostic (U.S.): Remarks by the President of the Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank
  2. European Consumer Price Index

In the U.S. currency market yesterday, the U.S. dollar rose against the euro following the release of the FOMC meeting minutes, which revealed that many officials held hawkish views. The EUR/USD pair fell from 1.0663 to 1.0599, hitting a new low for the month.From a technical perspective, the EUR/USD pair’s daily RSI is trending downward, and the decline has already broken below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level. We will be closely monitoring whether the pair continues to fall toward the 38.2% level at 1.0469.

Among European currencies, the pound—which had risen by more than 2 yen the previous day following the PMI release—fell back by about 1.3 yen. The GBP/JPY pair dropped from 163.752 to 162.203. The decline halted as the pair found support at the 75-period moving average on the hourly chart.On the 4-hour chart, the pair is positioned just below the 20-MA, but since it has already touched the upper boundary of the daily uptrend line, a pullback is possible; therefore, traders should watch for a decline during European trading hours.
