The Greenback puts pressure ahead of key FOMC meeting
- Since October 2023, the decreased appetite for the US Dollar, particularly due to hopes of a more dovish monetary policy in the United States, has allowed the Euro to regain ground.
The EURUSD then traded in a bullish channel until the end of 2023, until 1.1141, the trend was therefore bullish in the medium term.
- However, since the start of 2024 and the fading of hopes of quick rate cuts in the United States, the US Dollar has strengthened significantly against the single currency. This situation led the market to invalidate the uptrend by breaking out the bullish channel.
The bearish crossover of the Tenkan and the Kijun, the bearish Switch of the Ichimoku cloud as well as the breakout of prices, the tenkan and the kijun by the Chiko Span send a clearly bearish message.
- That said, the strong 50% Fibonacci support at 1.0795 is now really close, and investors are also awaiting a crucial FOMC meeting this week.
A hawkish semantics from the FED would be likely to extend the dbearish movement of the EURUSD even lower towards 1.0714, 1.0600 or even 1.0450 by extension.
On the other hand, if Jerome Powell were to adopt a more dovish tone by talking about potential future rate cuts, a strong market rally could take place above the current 50% Fibonacci zone at 1.0795.
What is certain is that volatility will increase sharply this week on this pair.
