Current outlook
The euro dipped to 1.2139 in Asian trading. By the time the European session opened, the price action recovered to 1.2166. The European macro agenda is empty today except for a number of speeches by FOMC members. Given the gains seen by cable and overall sentiment of the major currencies stacked against the US dollar, we expect EURUSD to recover to 1.22. The price action bounced off the 112-degree angle, with support at 1.2140.
