EUR/USD Price Analysis: Next on the upside aligns 1.0770

EUR/USD resumes the upside beyond the 1.0700 barrier.
Further gains should meet the weekly high near 1.0770.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/USD leaves behind Tuesday’s pullback and reclaims the area above 1.0700 the figure during pre-FOMC trade on Wednesday.

If the rebound gathers extra steam, the pair should face a minor hurdle at the weekly high of 1.0767 (September 12) prior to the critical 200-day SMA at 1.0828.

Despite the so far two-day bounce, the pair’s underlying bearish sentiment remains unchanged and leaves the door open to extra pullbacks in the short-term horizon. Against that backdrop, further losses could see the September low at 1.0631 (September 14) revisited ahead of the March low of 1.0516 (March 15).

While below the key 200-day SMA, the pair is likely to face extra weakness.

Market stresses are concentrated in sovereign bonds, and European and US yields had another scare late on Friday, and moved higher.

BoJ Recap: Not as hawkish as expected

The Bank of Japan (BoJ) raised its short-term interest-rate target to 1.25% from 1.00% in a 7-2 vote, marking another step in the normalisation of monetary policy and widely matching what everyone has been expecting for weeks.
