EUR/USD Price Analysis: Focus on two-month-old support near 1.1750

  • EUR/USD remains pressured around three-week lows, consolidate the biggest daily fall in a month.
  • Firmer Momentum back-up to the south-run, 50-DMA break favor sellers.
  • Bulls remain unconvinced before witnessing a break of 1.1910.

EUR/USD stays on the back foot around 1.1765 amid Friday’s Asian session.

The major currency pair dropped the most since August 17 the previous day after breaking the 50-DMA key support.

However, the quote’s further downside needs confirmation from a horizontal area established since July, around 1.1750.

Given the positive Momentum during the downside and the key moving average break, EUR/USD is likely to conquer the stated key support near 1.1750, which in turn will direct the sellers toward the yearly low near 1.1665. During the fall, early August low near 1.1710 may entertain the bears.

On the flip side, recovery moves remain doubtful unless crossing the 50-DMA level of 1.1797 on a daily closing basis.

Also acting as the key upside hurdle is a horizontal area comprising double tops around 1.1910.

EUR/USD eases to near 1.1650, eyes US PCE for fresh impetus

EUR/USD turns south to test 1.1650 in European trading on Friday, facing rejection once again near seven-week highs.

Gold remains below $4,250 barrier as traders await US PCE data for directional impetus

Gold gains some positive traction on Friday, though it remains confined in the weekly range. Dovish Fed expectations continue to undermine the USD and lend support to the commodity. Bulls, however, might opt to wait for the US PCE Price Index before placing aggressive bets.

UoM Consumer Sentiment Index expected to post a mild recovery in December

December’s preliminary Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index is forecast to have picked up to 52 from a three-year low of 51.0 in November. A stalled labour market and higher price pressures are likely to weigh on consumers’ confidence.

Statistics Canada will release its Labour Force Survey on Friday, and markets are bracing for a weak print. The Unemployment Rate is expected to tick higher to 7% in November, while the Employment Change is forecast to come in flat after a nice gain in October.

Pi Network Price Forecast: Bearish streak nears critical support trendline

Pi Network (PI) edges lower on Friday for the third consecutive day, approaching a local support trendline. The on-chain data suggests an increase in supply pressure as Centralized Exchanges (CEXs) experience a surge in inflows.
