21.03.202313:17 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Analysis and trading tips for EUR/USD and GBP/USD on March 21 (US session)

Euro rose this morning despite weaker-than-expected data from the ZEW Institute. This suggests that yesterday's statements of ECB President Christine Lagarde continue to have a positive effect on buyers, who are aiming for a new monthly high. Pound has been less fortunate, but even there, bulls are gradually picking up after a significant correction.

The US secondary market home sales data is due out this afternoon, which may put even more pressure on dollar, especially ahead of tomorrow's Federal Reserve meeting.
