EUR/USD - 1.1292
Euro’s decline from last Tuesday’s 3-month high of 1.1412 to an 11-day low at 1.1276 yesterday suggests recent upmove from 2019 22-month bottom at 1.1108 (May) has made a top and as long as 1.1345 (last week’s high, now res) holds, stronger correction towards 1.1221 (61.8% r of 1.1108-1.1412) is envisaged before prospect of rebound due to loss of downward momentum.

Only a firm break above Tuesday’s 1.1321 high would be the first signal low has been made, then risk would shift to the upside for stronger retracement of said fall to 1.1345, break, 1.1355/60 later.

EUR/USD - 1.1287
Despite euro’s resumption of decline from Jun’s 3-month peak at 1.1412 to correct medium-term upmove to a 12-day trough of 1.1269 (Europe) yesterday, subsequent sideways swings in New York session would bring consolidation before one more fall, ‘loss of downward momentum’ should keep price above 1.1220/25 and bring strong retracement of aforesaid fall.

A daily close above 1.1321 would be the 1st signal low has been formed, then stronger gain to 1.1345 would follow, break would head back to 1.1370/80.

EUR/USD - 1.1280
Despite yesterday’s narrow move following early decline from Jun’s 3-month peak at 1.1412 to a 12-day low at 1.1269, outlook remains mildly bearish for marginal weakness, loss of downward momentum would keep price above 1.1221/25 and bring a stronger retracement of said fall.

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK on Major
Update Time: 08 Jul 2019 05:30 GMT

EUR/USD - 1.1224
Euro’s intra-day firm break of last Wednesday’s 1.1269 low to a 2-week trough of 1.1208 after stronger-than-expected U.S. payrolls report in New York on Friday suggests early correction from May’s 22-month bottom at 1.1108 has ended earlier at 1.1412 (June high) and downside bias remains for further weakness to 1.1182 but 1.1155/60 would hold today.

On the upside, only above 1.1269 signals temporary low is made and risks stronger retracement of recent decline to 1.1290/95 but res area at 1.1311/21 should cap upside.

On the data front, Germany will kick off with industrial production, imports n exports , trade balance and current account, then the EU will release Sentix professional investor confidence index.

EUR/USD - 1.1215
Euro’s re-test of Fri’s post-NFP 2-week trough of 1.1208 in New York after initial recovery to 1.1234 (Europe) suggests recent decline from Jun’s peak at 1.1412 would head to next daily chart objective at 1.1182, however, loss of downward momentum should limit weakness to 1.1150/55 and risk has increased for a correction to take place ahead of Fed chief J. Powell’s 2-day testimony before the Congress starting tomorrow.

Only a daily close above 1.1234 signals temporary low is made and risks stronger retracement twd 1.1269 but 1.1287/91 should cap upside.

Although yesterday’s resumption of recent decline to a near 3-week low at 1.1194 suggests early correction from May’s 22-month bottom at 1.1108 has ended at 1.1412 (Jun high), subsequent recovery to 1.1214 would bring consolidation before another fall, loss of downward momentum would keep price well above 1.1108.

Despite euro’s resumption of recent decline from Jun’s 3-month peak of 1.1412 to a near 3-week trough of 1.1194 on Tue, yesterday’s rally to 1.1263 in New York due to usd’s broad-based selloff following dovish Fed chair J. Powell’s testimony suggests said fall has made a low and stronger retracement of this move to 1.1321/31 is envisaged after consolidation.

On the downside, only a daily close below 1.1208 signals correction is over and risks weakness towards daily chart objective at 1.1182 later.

Although euro’s decline from last week’s high at 1.1285 to 1.1201 (Europe) yesterday’s suggests early correction from July’s low at 1.1194 has ended there, subsequent bounce to 1.1233 due to usd’s broad-based weakness caused by falling U.S. yields, then intra-day break of said Wednesday’s high in Asia suggests choppy trading above 1.1194 would continue.

Above 1.1254 would yield another rise towards 1.1285 whilst below 1.1201 would re-test 1.1194, then 1.1182, however, loss of downward momentum should keep euro above 1.1150.

Despite euro’s intra-day rebound from 1.1206 on Thursday and then jump to 1.1280 after dovish comments by New York Fed’s Williams, intra-day brief drop from 1.1281 to 1.1241 following official statement by New York Fed on Williams’ comments suggests further price gyrations inside recent 1.1285-1.1201 broad range may continue.

Below 1.1241 would pressure price back towards 1.1201 but below July’s 1.1194 bottom needed to extend recent decline towards projected downside target at 1.1150 next week whilst above 1.1285 would yield stronger correction to 1.1311/21.

EUR/USD - 1.1218
Despite euro’s 1-week long daily choppy trading from July’s 1.1194 low to 1.1285, Friday’s intra-day sharp fall from 1.1281 (AUS) to 1.1204 in New York due to renewed usd’s strength suggests re-test of said sup would be seen after consolidation, break there would extend decline from June’s 1.1412 peak to 1.1182, loss of momentum is likely to keep price above projected sup at 1.1150.

On the upside, only above 1.1285 ‘prolongs’ broad sideways swings and risks stronger correction of said fall to 1.1311/21 before prospect of retreat later this week.

Despite euro’s brief break of previous 2019 low at 1.1108 (May) to a 2-year trough of 1.1102 after ECB’s dovish hold, subsequent brief jump to 1.1187 due to active short covering in euro following ECB Draghi’s comments in post-ECB press conference and then retreat to 1.1127 in New York afternoon suggests range trading is in store today, as long as 1.1187 holds, downside bias remains, below 1.1100/02 needed to extend downtrend towards projected target at 1.1054 next week.

Only a daily close above 1.1187 confirms temporary bottom is in place and would yield stronger correction to 1.1225 and possibly towards 1.1285 later.

EUR/USD - 1.1132
Although euro’s weakness to 1.1113 in New York on Fri due to renewed usd’s strength following upbeat U.S. data suggests early correction from Thursday’s 25-month trough at 1.1102 has ended the same day at 1.1187, intra-day yen-led recovery in Asia would bring further choppy sideways swings before prospect of resumption of downtrend towards projected downside target at 1.1054.

Only a daily close above 1.1187 signals temporary low has been made instead, then risk would shift to the upside for stronger retracement towards 1.1225.

On the data front, economic calendar is very thin with Italy’s PPI being the only data due out at 08:00GMT, therefore, fund flows will have great impact on intra-day price swings during European morning trading.
