FXStreet (Córdoba) – EUR/USD found support and bounced from below 1.0800, halting a downward corrective move from its post-ECB high.
In the absence of first-tier data, EUR/USD went through a corrective downward move following Thursday’s steep rally, and briefly dropped below the 1.08 mark but bounced from a low of 1.0795 back to the 1.0850 zone. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.0848, still down 0.20% on the day.
Now investors’ attention turns to Dec 16 Fed decision, when the FOMC is expected to vote for a rate hike for first time since 2006. In the meantime, other central banks will decide this week, including RBNZ, SNB and BoE.
