The unemployment rate in the European Union has decreased from 6.5% to 6.4%. However, the European currency continued to depreciate, as the actual data turned out to be below expectations—the previous indicator was revised upward from 6.4% to 6.5%.
The EUR/USD currency pair crossed the 1.0500 support level as part of speculative-inertial movement. This shift in price dynamics indicates high trader activity focused on dollar positions, as observed in the market.
The correction in the GBP/USD pair ended quickly, just as it began. As a result, the volume of short positions on the British pound began to grow again, allowing sellers to update the local low of the downward cycle.
During the American session, the release of Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) data for August is expected. Forecasts suggest a decrease in the number of job openings. While these data do not provide a complete picture of the labor market, they become more interesting in light of the upcoming release of the U.S. Department of Labor report and may attract speculators' attention.
Scheduled Event:
Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) (Aug) – 14:00 UTC
If the price holds below the level of 1.0500, it could lead to further weakening of the euro. However, it is important to consider that the European currency has already lost more than 7% of its value since the beginning of the current downward trend. Thus, short positions may be unstable, and this could lead to a technical pullback or even a full-scale correction.
The inertial downward movement has already led to a depreciation of the British pound by almost 200 points. Given the current oversold status, the volume of short positions may be reduced, which could result in a technical pullback. Traders may consider the psychological level of 1.2000 as a potential support zone.
