EURO-DOLLAR
EURO-DOLLAR: Strong EUR/USD sales emerged in early Europe which took the rate
through its recent low (Sep 04) of $1.1530 before it ran into strong demand that
based the move at $1.1526, allowing the pair to recover to ~$1.1600.
- The second leg of the rally was initially facilitated by a warm enough tone in
EU/U.S. trade talks, with the 2 parties set to reconvene at the end of the
month, while a sharp move higher in cable on positive Brexit comments from EU
negotiator Barnier gave the move additional legs, although EUR/GBP sales capped.
- EUR/USD last deals at $1.1585. Bulls still need a close above $1.1600 to
change the short-term outlook & switch focus to trendline resistance and the
100-DMA ($1.1698). Bears continue to focus on $1.1500 and the longer-term
downtrend.
