More than week-long rally is taking a pause

24-HOUR VIEW: "Last Thursday, EUR fell to a low of 1.0820. On Friday, we noted a 'mild downward pressure', and we were of the view that EUR 'could edge below 1.0820 but is unlikely to reach 1.0770.' EUR subsequently dipped to 1.0829 before staging a surprising sharp, but brief, rise to 1.0912. EUR closed higher by 0.25% at 1.0879. The price movements are likely part of a range trading phase, probably between 1.0845 and 1.0910." 

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "After holding positive EUR view for more than a week, we revised our outlook to neutral last Friday (14 Mar, spot at 1.0850). We indicated the following: 'The more than week-long rally is taking a pause, and the current price movements are likely part of a consolidation phase. For now, we expect EUR to trade in a 1.0680/1.0950 range. While this range may seem wide, it is not unexpected given the size of the recent rally.' Our update still stands."
