EURUSD: the ECB week aheadThe Non-farm Payrolls for November were the main macro indicator that the market was waiting for during the previous week. The NFP of 227K in November was slightly above the market expectations of 200K. At the same time, the unemployment rate in November increased a bit to 4,2%, from the previous 4,1%. Average hourly earnings were higher by 0,4% for the month, which brings the indicator up by 4% for the year. As for other US macro data published during the week, the ISM Manufacturing reached the level of 48,4 in November, modestly above market estimate of 47,5. The ISM Services PMI in November reached the level of 52,1 which was lower from market estimate of 55,5. Michigan Consumer Sentiment preliminary for December is standing at 74,0 a bit higher from the market expectation of 72,5. Inflation expectation for the next five years has a bit decreased to the level of 3,1%, from 3,2% posted during the previous month. The Manufacturing industry in Germany continues to slow down. As per posted HCOB Manufacturing PMI final for November, the index in Germany reached the level of 43, which was below market estimate of 43,2. The same index reached 46 in the Euro Zone a bit better from forecasted 45,2. At the same time, the services sector in Germany is doing better from manufacturing, as HCOB Services PMI final for November reached 51,6 a bit better from estimated 49,4. The same index for the Euro Zone was also standing at the level of 51,6. The Producers Price Index in the Euro Zone dropped by -0,6% in October, bringing the total drop to -3,4% for the year. The Retail Sales in the Euro Zone were higher by 0,5% in October, bringing the indicator up by 2,9% for the year. The Industrial Production in Germany dropped by -2,5% in October for the month, which was significantly below market expectations of +2,5%. Despite the relatively solid jobs data, the market is increasing odds that the Fed will further cut interest rates at their December meeting. The USD weakened a bit during the previous week, from the level of 1,048 up to the level of 1,062. The currency pair ended the week at the level of 1,056. The RSI started its path toward the upside, however at the level of 45, there is no clear sign that the market is currently eyeing the overbought market side. The moving average of 50 days continued its divergence from the MA200, confirming the cross occurred two weeks ago. The week ahead will be the ECB week. The Europeans will decide on the future course of reference interest rates. Considering decreasing inflation, but also weakening of the EuroZone economy, the market is expecting to see a further 25 bps cut. On the other hand, the US market will digest the latest NFP and inflation data and position accordingly for the FOMC meeting, scheduled for December 17-18th. As per current charts, there is some probability for resistance line at 1,07 to be tested, but first the 1,06 level should be clearly breached. At the same time, charts are also showing some probability that 1,05 support could be tested for one more time. Important news to watch during the week ahead are: EUR: Inflation rate in Germany final for November, ECB Interest Rate Decision (expectations: 3%), ECB Press conference after the ECB meeting, ECB Economic Projections, Balance of Trade in Germany for October, Industrial Production in the EuroZone, HCOB Manufacturing PMI flash for December in Germany and the Euro Zone USD: Inflation rate in November, Producers Price Index in November

EUR/USD: Are We Crashing Through Parity?Well, well, well, EUR/USD, you sly dog. Just when we thought the pair might catch a break, it doubles down on its favorite hobby—going DOWN. 📉 Since late September, this thing has been in a nosedive so steep it makes roller coasters look tame. 🎢 And now? It’s giving us not one but TWO glorious bearish flags. That’s the market’s way of saying, “Hold my beer, I’ve got more downside to cover.” 🍺 So, buckle up as we break down what’s happening with EUR/USD, why it’s acting like a currency in free fall, and just how low it might go. Spoiler alert: Parity might not be far enough. 😏 The Downtrend Diaries: EUR/USD’s Love Affair with Lows Okay, let’s rewind to late September. What happened? Oh, just EUR/USD deciding it was time to swap its bull costume for a full-blown bear suit. 🐻 We’re talking lower highs, lower lows, and every technical analyst’s favorite phrase: "the trend is your friend" (until it’s not, of course). This week? The pair is snuggled nicely inside its second bearish flag, like a bear hibernating before its next big move. For those of you wondering, a bearish flag is when the market pauses, catches its breath, and says, “Alright, time to drop some more.” And let me tell you, these flags aren’t subtle. They’re practically screaming, “Hey, the trend’s still bearish—don’t get any ideas!” Why So Bearish? Let’s Blame the Usual Suspects The Almighty Dollar Flexing Again 💪 The USD is out here reminding everyone why it’s called the safe-haven king. Interest rates? Still high. Risk-off sentiment? Very much alive. Meanwhile, the euro’s like that one kid who forgot to study for the test—it’s just not prepared to fight back. 🤷‍♂️ Eurozone: Where’s the Mojo? Between slowing growth, sticky inflation, and the French government imploding (because why not?), the euro is struggling to convince anyone it’s worth a rally. Even the promise of €500 billion in defense spending couldn’t lift its spirits for long. If fiscal spending can’t save the day, what can? Bearish Flags Don’t Lie 🚩 These flags are the cherry on top of the downtrend sundae. First, we had one around 1.0650, which broke lower like clockwork. Now we’re staring down another flag that’s coiled tighter than my jeans after Thanksgiving dinner. Once this breaks, well... let’s just say the floor is looking mighty inviting. How Low Can It Go? Let’s Talk Targets 🔭 Now, if this flag plays out like the textbook says, EUR/USD could easily revisit 1.0450. And if that level doesn’t hold? Get ready to dust off those parity memes. Yes, I’m talking 1.0000, the big, scary, psychological level where everyone suddenly remembers how to panic. 😱 But hey, let’s not stop there. The lower boundary of the larger downtrend is lurking below 0.9900, and if the bears get really hungry, that’s where they’ll feast. 🍴 The Sarcastic Silver Lining: What Would It Take to Flip Bullish? Oh, you want bullish scenarios? That’s cute. 😏 Here’s what would need to happen: The euro suddenly gets a personality transplant and decides it’s worth something. The USD forgets it’s the global reserve currency and takes a nap. A miracle. Like, divine intervention-level miracle. But seriously, unless EUR/USD breaks above 1.0600 with conviction (and by conviction, I mean a rally that doesn’t immediately fall apart), the bears are still in charge. Final Thoughts: Trade Smart or Get Wrecked 💀 Look, the writing’s on the wall. EUR/USD is in a downtrend, the flags are flapping, and the bears are sharpening their claws. This isn’t the time to play hero and try to catch a bottom. Instead, let the trend do its thing, wait for the flag to break, and ride the wave lower. 🌊 And hey, if it does hit parity, at least we’ll have something to talk about at the next market meltdown party. 🎉 Until then, keep those stop-losses tight, and don’t forget: the trend might be your friend, but it’s also got a dark sense of humor. Catch you next time, traders. George out. 🎤

#EURUSD 4HEURUSD 4-Hour Analysis The EURUSD pair is forming a head and shoulders pattern on the 4-hour chart, which is typically a bearish reversal signal. However, in this case, the price action suggests a potential invalidation of the pattern, favoring a bullish breakout scenario. If the neckline resistance is broken, it could provide a buy opportunity. Technical Outlook: Pattern: Head and Shoulders (Potential Breakout) Forecast: Bullish (Buy Opportunity) Entry Strategy: Enter a buy position upon a confirmed breakout above the neckline resistance with strong bullish momentum. Traders should monitor for bullish confirmation such as a breakout candlestick with increased volume or indicators like MACD signaling upward momentum. Proper risk management is crucial, with stop-loss orders placed below the neckline and profit targets set at the next resistance levels.

EURUSD Crucial test on the 4H MA200. Bullish if broken.The EURUSD pair has been trading within a Bearish Megaphone since the September 30 High, which is technically the Bearish Leg of the long-term Channel Down pattern, which we saw on our previous analysis. Having found support on the 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), the pair appears to be attempting another test on the 4H MA200 (orange trend-line), which rejected the last Lower High (November 05) and has been intact since October 01, making it practically the basic long-term Resistance. As a result, if the 4H MA200 breaks, the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the Bearish Megaphone should follow too, which will cause a technical medium-term break-out. Our Target is the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level at 1.08765. You may use the Higher Lows trend-line as an additional tool to determine if the break-out will be successful as last time (November 05) the failed to hold and caused the new Bearish Low of the Megaphone. Similar analogy with the 4H RSI Higher Lows trend-line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Lingrid | EURUSD High-Probability Shorting OpportunityThe price perfectly fulfilled my last idea. It hit the target. FX:EURUSD is currently moving sideways following a significant bearish downturn in autumn. I believe the market will remain in this consolidation zone for a while, as it typically consolidates after such substantial movements. However, if the price retests the channel boundary and rebounds from it, there is a greater likelihood that it will move down, from the resisatnce zone and channel border within the major bearsih trend. My goal is support zone around 1.04300 Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

US Tariffs: Deflationary Risk for Europe?EURUSD faces a crucial week, marked by key economic events and trade tensions. As US protectionist policies under President-elect Donald Trump could intensify deflationary pressures in Europe. Impact of U.S. tariffs While tariffs are often associated with inflation, in Europe they could have the opposite effect due to limited exposure to U.S. imports and their indirect impact on growth and employment. U.S. imports account for only 10% of the total in the Eurozone, with consumer goods barely reaching 6%, limiting the direct impact on prices. However, a 10% across-the-board tariff could reduce economic growth in the Eurozone by 0.3%, affecting employment and wages in key sectors such as manufacturing. On the export side, lower demand for European goods from the U.S. and China could deepen economic problems, although the eurozone previously benefited from the reorientation of global trade. In addition, previous trade disputes showed that a surge in Chinese imports into Europe contributed to disinflationary pressures. ECB meeting this Thursday The European Central Bank (ECB) will address a complicated environment of high uncertainty this Thursday, with trade tensions and signs of economic weakness. While no rate changes are expected, statements on the impact of trade tensions and the growth outlook will be crucial in determining the direction of the euro, the tone of the statements will be key to market expectations. A more cautious stance could weaken the euro, while any hint of optimism could give the currency a slight respite. Monetary policy could remain accommodative if economic projections continue to deteriorate. German trade balance on Friday Friday's release of Germany's trade balance will offer a signal on the health of Europe's economic engine. A larger surplus could support the euro, but an unexpected deficit, combined with tariff concerns, would reinforce negative sentiment about the eurozone economy. Between trade tensions and macroeconomic data, EUR/USD could experience high volatility this week, reflecting growing concerns about the European economic outlook. Progress on the Mercosur-EU agreement This weekend, Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, concluded a free trade agreement between Mercosur and the European Union. The first attempt was formally launched in 1999, in negotiations that began as part of a broader cooperation framework established in 1995 (Framework Agreement on Interregional Cooperation). The agreement did not close despite looking promising on its last occasion as it faced multiple interruptions over the years due to disagreements in key areas such as agricultural products, industrial market access, environmental rules and labor rights. After intermittent negotiations, a preliminary agreement was announced in 2019, although its implementation is still pending due to debates over environmental issues. This time the agreement has generated very explosive messages from the Spanish agricultural camp and full opposition from Emmanuel Macron, the current main drivers being Germany and Spain. If finalized, it could boost trade and offer economic respite to both regions. A favorable agreement would strengthen European exports to Latin America, offsetting some of the negative effects of trade tensions with the US. Technical Aspect Looking at the 1H. chart, since December 9-10 the market has made a strong upward price recovery rally, with very high trading volume on the current trading day to the upside. The directionality of the euro seems to be trying to recover 1.05996 with the current price at 1.05641. The moving average is determining a possible opening in an upward direction, despite the checkpoint being around 1.05241. RSI is currently in its middle zone at 52.77%. In this environment full of uncertainties, EURUSD could experience high volatility, reflecting the interplay between trade challenges, ECB decisions and the potential breakthrough in the Mercosur-EU treaty.

EUR/USD: Diverging Economic Realities Point to Further WeaknessEUR/USD: Diverging Economic Realities Point to Further Weakness The EUR/USD currency pair faces mounting pressure as economic data and central bank commentary from both sides of the Atlantic paint contrasting pictures. With the year-end approaching, traders are navigating through a mix of historical trends, updated macroeconomic indicators, and shifting monetary policy expectations. --- Eurozone: Fragility Persists Industrial and Consumer Weakness Germany's 1.5% MoM decline in industrial orders, though marginally better than expected, reflects ongoing struggles in Europe's largest economy. Additionally, retail sales in the Eurozone fell by 0.5% MoM, highlighting a weak consumer spending environment that continues to drag on growth prospects. PMI and GDP Concerns The Composite PMI edged up slightly to 48.3, but contraction persists, underscoring the broader economic challenges in the region. Italy's downward revision of GDP forecasts further dampens sentiment, increasing the likelihood of more accommodative measures from the European Central Bank (ECB). ECB's Dovish Tilt ECB policymakers, including Robert Holzmann, have signaled a potential rate cut in December, reflecting a shift towards easing amid the Eurozone's persistent economic struggles. However, political instability, such as France's no-confidence vote against President Macron, adds another layer of uncertainty to the region's economic outlook. --- United States: Resilience Amid Inflation Challenges: Economic and Labor Market Data The U.S. economy continues to show signs of resilience. Durable goods orders rose 0.3% and construction spending increased by 0.4%, aligning with expectations. Despite a slight drop in the ISM Services PMI to 52.1, the economy remains in expansion mode. The labor market also remains a pillar of strength - Nonfarm Payrolls: 227k (forecast: 220k, previous: 12k, revised: 36k). - Unemployment Rate: 4.2% (forecast: 4.1%, previous: 4.1%). - Average Earnings YoY: 4.0% (forecast: 3.9%, previous: 4.0%). While layoffs have ticked up slightly, strong payroll growth and stable wages suggest continued labor market robustness, albeit with signs of gradual cooling. Fed's Monetary Policy Path Fed officials, including John Williams and Mary Daly, have hinted at potential rate cuts in 2024, but progress on inflation appears to have stalled, as noted by Fed Governor Michelle Bowman. Market sentiment is shifting rapidly—traders now see an 85% probability of a Fed rate cut this month, up from 67% before the November jobs report. Short-term interest-rate futures have surged, reflecting growing expectations of a dovish pivot. However, the Fed remains cautious, balancing inflationary risks with economic stability. --- Inflation and Consumer Sentiment The University of Michigan's latest data reinforces the U.S. economy's resilience: - 1-Year Inflation Expectations: 2.9% (forecast: 2.7%, previous: 2.6%). - Consumer Sentiment Prelim: 74.0 (forecast: 73.2, previous: 71.8). Elevated inflation expectations and improving consumer sentiment contrast with the Eurozone's gloomy outlook, further strengthening the dollar's appeal. --- EUR/USD Outlook: Bearish Bias Remains Intact Despite historical trends that favor the euro in December, the current economic backdrop presents significant challenges for sustained appreciation. Weak Eurozone data and a dovish ECB stand in stark contrast to the U.S. economy's relative stability and the Fed's measured approach. Key Factors Driving EUR/USD: 1. Diverging Data: Strong U.S. labor and inflation figures versus weak Eurozone performance. 2. Monetary Policy: Fed's cautious flexibility versus ECB's dovish signals. 3. Sentiment Shift: Rising probability of U.S. rate cuts but with a stronger baseline economy. While seasonal trends may provide temporary relief for the euro, the broader trajectory points downward. Traders should focus on macroeconomic developments and central bank guidance as the primary drivers for the pair in the coming weeks. The euro's path to recovery remains steep, with the U.S. dollar maintaining the upper hand in the current environment.

EURUSDKey Observations: Support and Resistance Zones: There is a clearly established support zone around 1.0500, which coincides with prior lows and strong buying activity. Resistance levels are seen around 1.0600 (immediate resistance) and higher at 1.0700 if bullish momentum builds. Trend Analysis: The daily chart indicates a downtrend, but recent consolidation around the 1.0500 zone suggests potential for a reversal or a corrective move upward. On lower timeframes (15m, 30m, 1h), there is consolidation within the range of 1.0500-1.0550. Indicators: RSI: RSI levels below 40 indicate bearish pressure, but potential divergence could suggest an upcoming bullish move. MACD: The MACD shows minimal momentum, indicating a consolidation phase. Moving Averages: The price is below the 200 EMA on higher timeframes, reinforcing the bearish structure. On shorter timeframes, the 50 EMA and 200 EMA are nearing a crossover, which could hint at bullish momentum in the short term. Strategy and Recommendations: Scenario 1: Bullish Breakout Entry: Consider buying if the price breaks above 1.0550 with strong volume. Targets: Target 1: 1.0600 (immediate resistance). Target 2: 1.0700 (next resistance zone if momentum sustains). Stop Loss: Below 1.0480 to account for potential fakeouts. Scenario 2: Bearish Continuation Entry: Sell if the price decisively breaks below 1.0500 with increased volume. Targets: Target 1: 1.0450 (next support level). Target 2: 1.0400 (key psychological level). Stop Loss: Above 1.0550 to protect against reversals. Recommended Approach: Short-Term Traders: Focus on breakouts above 1.0550 or below 1.0500 for clear momentum trades. Swing Traders: Await confirmation on daily candles around the 1.0500 support zone to determine if a reversal or continuation occurs. Risk Management: Always ensure a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2 and limit exposure to avoid over-leverage in volatile conditions.
