EUR consolidates in low 1.11 zone – Scotiabank
|EUR/USD remains little changed on the day. Spot is trading flat and holding within yesterday’s range in the wait of the upcoming FOMC, Scotiabank’s Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes.
Technicals lean bullish
“Markets are awaiting for the FOMC and there was no incentive to push spot one way or the other. Final Eurozone August inflation was revised marginally lower to 0.1% M/M (from 0.2%) while the Y/Y measure was unrevised at 2.2% (down from 2.6%).”
“Spot is holding its bullish break out from its August/September consolidation range (bull flag) on the daily chart. Trend momentum signals are aligned bullishly on the intraday, daily and weekly DMI studies, tilting technical risks clearly towards EUR gains.”
“Resistance is 1.12 and 1.1275 in the short run. Support is 1.1100/10 and 1.1050. Sustained gains above 1.1110 through the end of the week will tilt medium term risks higher.”
