EUR/USD FUNDAMENTALS AND TECHNICAL

 

Pair closed last week’s trading session higher on hawkish comments from ECB’s officials. Both officials in their speeches highlighted that the central bank will increase interest rates up to 4%. With a rate hike of 0.5% on the next meeting if inflation still persist higher. The mixed economic releases from the US was a negative factor behind last week’s US Dollars selloff.

As for this week, Traders and investors, will mainly focus on the non-farm payroll in the US. The forecast for last month payroll is pointing to negative. If this will be confirmed it will have negative impact on US Dollar as it will be the first negative non-farm payroll since the 2019 pandemic. The heavy economic calendar from both sides the EU and the US will create a turbulence trading session. FED’s chairman Powell is due to testify and is worth listening to what he has to say regarding central bank’s future path on interest rates.

On the economic calendar, we have on Monday the European retail sales pointing higher at 1.9% On Wednesday, German retail sales expected higher at 2%, European gross domestic product to remain unchanged at 1.9% US ADP employment expected higher at 168K. On Friday German harmonized index of consumer prices to remain unchanged at 9.3%. US non-farm payrolls expected at -35K and US Michigan consumer sentiment at 67.

Technically the picture is neutral after last week’s recover and closed above 61.8%. In this week’s trading session if pair continues on the upside and breaks above 50% could change the picture to positive and re-test  1.0765  Alternatively, if pair resumes downside we are expecting to re-test 1.0500 Our traders are net long with buyers standing between 1.0870 and 1.0600 targeting profits around 1.1000. We are expecting more aggressive buyers on the way down and short sellers to appear above 1.0800.
