EUR/USD:ย ฮคhe Euro temporarily stabilizes

The single European currency shows signs of stabilization after the losses it suffered in the last three days as it has managed to react from the temporary low of 1.0220 to 1.0280.
Tuesday'sย lossesย came to a balance as I had mentioned in my article yesterday as withoutย important macroeconomics newsย it would be difficult for these losses to take a large extent.
Theย break on US currency's recent gainsย was also supported by statements fromย Fed's officialsย that they expect the pace of rate hikes to slowdown.
But on the same line andย European officials in turn expect the European Central Bank to be more restrained about the amount of increases in the next meetings .
The policy to be followed by the two main central banks regarding the path of interest rates remains the main catalyst currently affecting the exchange rate .
The rates gap currently continues to be in favor of the dollarย something that its difficult to allows the European currency to return to the strong upward momentum of the previous week.
At the same time, however, the European currency also shows signs of reactions and every time it finds itself in local new dips , the behavior of the reactions comes back to the fore, something that characterized the pair in its downward courseย in recent months.
In today's agenda stands out the announcement on the course ofย Consumer confidence in the eurozone and someย statements from Fed's officials.
Without any major surprises i would expect a limited range tradingย without extreme moves with the possibility of the European currency coming againย under limited pressures.ย
