With the opening of European platforms, a new round of depreciation of the euro emerged, which led to the price holding below 0.9800. As a result, the speculative-inertial move continues to form, which allows the rate to decline to the subsequent control value of 0.9650, where the lower border of the flat 0.9650/1.0000 passed earlier in history.
It should be noted that the market is already experiencing overheating of euro short positions, which allows for a new technical pullback.
The pound sterling, following the euro, continued to decline, which resulted to the breakdown of the level of 1.1200.
