The Euro (EUR) is tracking a little weaker on the session but losses are limited and Euro (EUR) dips to the low 1.08 area remain well-supported, Scotiabank’s chief FX strategist Shaun Osborne notes.

Loss of support in the low 1.08s is likely

“More range trading seems likely in the near-term. While markets are mainly focused on central bank developments elsewhere this week, key Eurozone data prints—GDP, inflation—may provide some insight into the ECB policy outlook and influence spot movement to some degree.”

“Flat trading over the past four sessions for the EUR has defined a clear range trade between 1.0825 support and 1.070/75 resistance. The lower end of the range is bolstered by a gently rising 200-day MA at 1.0820.”

“Loss of support in the low 1.08s would suggest more weakness to the 1.0725/75 range in the short run. Intraday trend momentum is bearish but the daily and weekly studies remain bullishly-aligned which should help prop up the lower end of the trading range for a bit longer at least.”
