The EUR/USD edges lower this Tuesday, with the pair back and forth during US session albeit nervous investments. The pair spent most of the day under pressure, mostly due to some covering ahead of FED decision tomorrow, yet ECB’s Nowotny words, regarding future actions of the Central Bank, trigger a strong demand of euro, sending the pair back towards 1.3805 area: the official said the bank is not considering to cut refi or depo rates, neither has the tools to fight a strong currency. The rally however, was short lived and price retraced its gains on quick profit taking, ending pretty much where it was before the statement.
As for the technical picture, the pair stands right above 1.3735 daily low, maintaining the short term negative tone, with price below its 20 SMA and indicators in negative territory. Nevertheless, more buyers await around 1.3710 in case of further dips, leaving the bullish dominant trend pretty much intact. A break below 1.3650 during this Wednesday however, could signal a deeper correction down to 1.3460 before a new leg up surges.
