EUR/USD Update: Fresh Five-Week Low Approaching 1.0800
EUR/USD Downward Trend
The EUR/USD pair is approaching a five-week low just under the 1.0800 mark, driven by a stronger dollar and weak German economic data. The ongoing downward momentum is supported by sellers leaning on the 200-day moving average.
Market Uncertainty and ECB Rate Cut Speculation
The lackluster German consumption and overall uninspiring Eurozone economy are adding pressure on the euro. Market participants are wary of potential rate cuts by the ECB in the near future, further contributing to the bearish sentiment.
There is also apprehension regarding the Fed's stance on monetary policy, raising concerns for the euro's outlook.
Technical Levels and Potential Upside Resistance
If EUR/USD breaks below 1.0800, it could trigger additional downside momentum, with a trendline resistance at 1.0775 acting as the next hurdle. Maintaining a daily close below 1.0800 might pave the way for further bearish movement in the following week.
