On Monday, the EUR/USD currency pair finally began to show signs of an upward correction. However, the day began with another decline for the euro, which was somewhat unexpected. While the drop wasn't particularly significant, it represented yet another decline for the European currency. In the latter half of the day, the quotes began to rise, but the initial resistance level halted the pair's upward movement.
Considering that the euro has been declining for four consecutive months and that we have already reached the key target area highlighted for 2024, it seems like a reasonable time for a correction. However, this entirely depends on the market dynamics. If there are no buyers for the euro, the correction is unlikely to start, no matter how overdue it may be. Interestingly, there were no local catalysts for either the rise or fall of the pair yesterday, as the macroeconomic and fundamental events calendar was almost empty.
On the 5-minute timeframe on Monday, two sell signals were generated. The price first broke below the 1.0223 level and then rebounded off it from below. In both instances, the pair failed to reach the nearest target level, meaning both trades could have been closed at breakeven using a Stop Loss. Overnight into Tuesday, the price rose sharply for no apparent reason but then rebounded from the 1.0269-1.0277 range. This suggests that we may see a decline in the euro today.
On the hourly timeframe, the EUR/USD pair remains in a downtrend. We believe that the euro's decline has resumed in the medium term, with only a short distance left to reach parity. Further declines in the euro are likely, as the fundamental and macroeconomic backdrop continues to support the U.S. dollar.
On Tuesday, price movements may be relatively muted, but it is important to remember that the downtrend, including the localized trend over the last three months, remains intact. The market continues to sell the pair, even in the absence of significant U.S. labor market and unemployment reports.
On the 5-minute timeframe, consider the following key levels: 1.0156, 1.0221, 1.0269-1.0277, 1.0334-1.0359, 1.0433-1.0451, 1.0526, 1.0596, 1.0678, 1.0726-1.0733, 1.0797-1.0804, and 1.0845-1.0851. The only significant event on Tuesday will be the release of the U.S. Producer Price Index. While we do not consider this report to be particularly important, the market is currently prepared to trade actively, even on days without scheduled news.
