EUR: Single Currency Extends Bounce Following Eurozone/Germany Data
EUR
- Markets are continuing to pare ECB easing bets following the higher-than-expected data releases across the Eurozone PMIs and the German inflation print for Hesse. As such, the Euro is strengthening and is among the best performers in G10.
- Alongside the softer greenback, EURUSD has extended its appreciation above the prior breakout level of 1.0335, taking the pair to an intra-day high of 1.0369. Overall, the trend needle continues to point south, and initial firm resistance is at 1.0414, the 20-day EMA.
- EURJPY is standing out, rising 0.75% at typing amid the notable weakness for the Japanese Yen overnight. We have traded above the Jan 02 high while the focus will be on 165.04, the Nov 15 high and a key short-term resistance.
