24-hour view: “Yesterday, we held the view that EUR ‘could drop to 1.0300’. However, EUR traded between 1.0318 and 1.0394 before closing slightly lower at 1.0327 (-0.10%). We continue to see downside risk for EUR even though the lackluster downward momentum suggests EUR is unlikely to challenge the major support at 1.0260. Resistance is at 1.0360, followed by 1.0390.”

Next 1-3 weeks: “There is no change in our view from yesterday (29 Nov, spot at 1.0345). As highlighted, the recent upward momentum has more or less dissipated. For the time being, EUR is likely to trade between 1.0260 and 1.0430. Looking ahead, if EUR breaks clearly below 1.0260, it could lead to a deeper drop.”
