A Profitable Trading Day

The U.S. dollar declined on the back of subdued U.S. yields while other significant drivers were lacking. The greenback may receive a boost today from the FOMC minutes in the evening.

The EUR/USD surged to a high of 1.0839 and euro bulls were able to profit. Our yesterday’s long entry at 1.0780 hit our profit target at 1.0820.

Also profitable was the trading in the GBP/USD Tuesday. We went long at 1.2610 and took profit at 1.2650.

The situation was different in the DAX where choppy sideways swings have led to two false breakouts and thus, two losing trades.

More U.S. Strength Ahead?

U.S. inflation came in higher than expected, pushing back expectations of an early Federal Reserve rate cut. A potential rate cut at the Fed’s May meeting is now being priced out. The U.S. dollar rose to a fresh three-month high following the surprise reading.

EUR/USD: A next lower target is now seen at around 1.0680-70. From there, bulls may jump back in but chances remain in favor of the bears right now. A current resistance is intact at around 1.08.

GBP/USD: The cable looks slightly tilted to the downside but must break below the EMA200 at 1.2550 for further bearish momentum. Falling below 1.2540, turns the focus to a next lower target at 1.25. As long as the pair remains below 1.27, sterling bulls might stay on the sidelines and take a wait-and-see approach.

What’s Next After The Latest Round Of U.S. Dollar Strength?

Friday’s U.S. NFP release showed the U.S. jobs market in good health with 353k new jobs created in January compared to expectations of only 180k. Following these healthy job numbers, traders pushed back on Federal Reserve rate cut expectations while a March rate cut is currently off the table.

The U.S. dollar strengthened strongly in response to Friday’s NFP report and provided short traders in both EUR/USD and GBP/USD some good gains.

Compared to last week, the economic calendar this week is light in terms of potential market-moving data and risk events. Traders should thus prepare for range-bound trades and smaller profits.

The EUR/USD slipped below 1.0790 and further towards 1.0760 but we expect that a short-term support is coming in at around 1.0750, which is why bulls could go for a test of the area around 1.0860. Falling below 1.0740, on the other side, could lead to a sell-off towards 1.0660.

The GBP/USD remained within its sideways range between 1.28 and 1.26. Looking for short entries, we will wait for price breaks below 1.2590 with a lower target at around 1.2560 and further for a fall below 1.2540 with a next target at 1.25. On the topside, a resistance is currently seen at 1.2750.

After Fed Focus Shifts To Friday’s NFP Data

Large swings were absent yesterday when the Federal Reserve failed to send a dovish signal, signaling only that it is not yet ready to ease its policy stance imminently. Thus, a rate cut in March is still possible but the likelihood of this early cut appears to be slim at the moment.

Expectations in terms of rate cuts could however change as soon as tomorrow, when the U.S. Nonfarm payrolls report is scheduled to be released. If job growth surprises to the downside, a March rate cut could be back on the table, which would weaken the U.S. dollar. Conversely, if NFP numbers are stronger-than-forecast, the greenback will rise on an unwinding of dovish bets.

Let’s wait and see.

FOMC Decision: Will The Fed Send A Dovish Signal?

Traders should be prepared for increased volatility with the Federal Reserve’s first policy decision of 2024 coming up. While no change in interest rates is expected, the Fed could adjust its monetary policy guidance which could trigger large swings. If the central bank embraces a more dovish posture, the U.S. dollar will fall. In the event of a hawkish signal and pushing back against expectations of deep and early rate cuts, the dollar should rise sharply.

The Fed’s interest rate decision will be announced at 19:00 GMT today, followed by the press conference 30 minutes later.

EUR/USD: Watch out for breaks either below 1.0790 (short) or above 1.0910 (long).

GBP/USD: Today, we will pay attention to a rise above 1.2760 which could attract buyers or a fall below 1.2640 that could increase bearish momentum towards 1.26 and further 1.2550.

ECB Decision Takes Center Stage

All eyes will turn to the European Central Bank decision today at 13:15 GMT where the central bank is expected to stand pat on rates with inflation still above target. While inflation in the euro area has maintained a downward trajectory during the last year, ECB policymakers are wary of upside risks to inflation. The biggest threat might be the latest crisis in the Middle East with a temporary supply shock posing a risk to European businesses.

Traders will focus on ECB President Christine Lagarde’s press briefing at 13:45 GMT for an updated view on the economy and inflation outlook.

The risk for the euro is to the downside. For the common currency to recover, Lagarde would need to sound surprisingly hawkish, dashing hopes for an ECB rate cut anywhere near as much as what markets have priced in. Markets expect the ECB to cut rates in June. If the communication among policymakers is, however, not clear, the euro could end up drifting sideways.

We will focus on a break below 1.0820 and further 1.08 in order to sell the euro towards 1.0750 and 1.07. Above 1.0935, the focus shifts back towards the 1.10-threshold.
