Market is making a pause before G20 and OPEC – non-OPEC

G20

EURUSD

The pair, probably, laid to the floor. Yesterday EURUSD stabilized around 1.1260 level, and it continues to trade there today. Hesitations of market participants can be explained: they do not have ideas for the further trend development or drastic break of growth to the decline side. Meanwhile, nobody wants to run into the future since the weekend will bring too many official multinational meetings. IMF will report in Washington its vision of world economy (Analytical chapters of the report were published a week ago). As well we can wait for the cooperative announcements from G20 that will meet during Summit. Moreover, more…

EURUSD broke out and fell

EUR vs USD

EURUSD

Common currency yesterday finally left the tight range. The drop was fast since the traders did not wait for confirmation of a short-term negative impulse, having gathered all the support levels. As the result, common currency is trying to consolidate this morning near 1.1250 level, one-and-a-half figure lower that Wednesday opening levels.

Last hour common currency managed to break the trading channel where it was traded the whole April. EURUSD dropped below 1.1320 that was not reached since March, 31.

As a whole staying in the trading range the pair is trying to form the growth attempt the third day in a row. Recently it bounced to 1.1460 but very soon returned back to usual levels – around 1.1420. This movement was just a small shade of the USD weakening against other currencies during recent trading sessions. Growth of EUR against USD caused partly by low statistics from the USA that pressure American markets and supported to some extent by USDJPY dropping. However, such theory opposed by quite optimistic attitude of the primary markets and confident behavior of most currencies. This more…

The main currency pair on Forex continues its boring movement within side channel. Still traders cannot find reasons for a trend – positive or negative. Mainly, such passive attitude is explained by interesting movement of other currencies as well as absence of news-drivers for the market. However, it means that markets are generating power ahead the new sharp movement. We just have to understand which side movement is most possible, and where we will have only speculative trades. So, Friday news on wholesale inventories and sales caused the re-estimation of the USA GDP growth to declining. Now the leading investment banks more…
