EUR: Single Currency Further Buoyed by Russia/Ukraine Optimism

EUR
  • More single currency strength in most recent trade as the positive tone of the Trump/Putin discussions fuels optimism for what Trump describes as a ‘successful conclusion’ to the Russia/Ukraine conflict.
  • This tips EURUSD back above 1.04 and narrows us in on the 50-day EMA, intersecting today a 1.0427. This marks a key resistance, and a clear break of it would be a bullish development.
  • For EURJPY (+1.78%), the intra-day range is nearing 300 pips, as we extend further above the pivotal 160.00 mark. Spot now trades within 30 pips of the key short-term resistance at 161.09, the 50-day EMA.
