May 12th – 16th

EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session lower on hawkish FOMC. The central bank kept interest rates unchanged and confirm another one time that they will be cautions going forward given uncertainty in markets due to tariffs. Diversity between hawkish FED’s officials and ECB’s dovish officials weighted negative on the pair.

As for this week, all eyes will be on the outcome of the meeting between US and China. Representatives from both countries are meeting to discuss the tariffs. Signals from Friday show that tariffs could go down to 60%. A lower tariff agreement will boost confidence, push equity markets higher and benefit US Dollar

On the economic calendar we have on Tuesday, the US CPI with expectations to remain unchanged at 2.4% On Wednesday, European Harmonized index of consumer prices to remain unchanged at 2.2% On Thursday, European Gross domestic to remain unchanged at 1.2% and US Producer price index higher at 0.3% On Friday, US Michigan consumer sentiment pointing higher at 53

Technically the picture is neutral after last week’s close below  (23.6%) at 1.1249 In this week’s trading session if pair trades on the upside will re-test 1.1365 A break out and close above 1,1365 will open the road for 1.1477 If trades on the downside will test 1.1133 (38.2%) A break and close below 1.1133 will add downside pressure and test 1.1024 Our traders took profit all their short positions and now siting on the side waiting for better technical levels. We are expecting new long positions starting at 1.1150 and new short positions at 1.1365
