On Monday, the EUR/USD pair reversed in favor of the US dollar, initiating a new decline by closing below the 323.6% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.0532. A rebound from this level today would again favor the US currency, potentially leading to further declines toward the next level at 1.0420. Conversely, consolidation above 1.0532 could introduce potential bullish signals, complicating the current technical outlook.
The wave structure remains clear. The last completed downward wave broke below the previous wave's low, while the current upward wave has yet to breach the prior peak. As such, the pair continues to form a bearish trend. Bulls have lost market initiative, and breaking this bearish trend would require the pair to rise above 1.0611, which it failed to achieve last week.
Monday's news had traders' attention divided. While European reports were largely unremarkable, US data impressed. Bears attacked aggressively at the start of the trading week, even before key data was released.
Key reports revealed that:
Although both indices remain below the 50.0 level, which indicates contraction, the positive dynamics cannot be overlooked.
This morning, the dollar showed slight declines despite a lack of European news. However, this drop is unlikely to last long given the dollar's previous strength and traders' confidence in its trajectory.
On the 4-hour chart, the pair rebounded from the 100.0% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.0603, accompanied by a bearish divergence signal on the Commodity Channel Index (CCI). This resulted in a reversal favoring the US dollar, with declines targeting the 127.2% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.0436.
Consolidation below 1.0436 would raise the probability of further declines toward the 161.8% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.0225.
Commitments of Traders (COT) ReportDuring the last reporting week:
The sentiment among speculators remains bearish, indicating further declines for the pair.
For ten consecutive weeks, major players have been reducing their euro holdings. This confirms the emergence of a new bearish trend.
The main driver of the dollar's recent decline—expectations of monetary easing by the FOMC—has already been priced in. Without new reasons to sell the dollar, further strength of the US currency appears likely. Technical analysis also supports the continuation of a long-term bearish trend for EUR/USD.
