Fundamental Analysis

* Labor Lift: The Euro has weakened against the US Dollar as traders brace for the European Central Bank (ECB) rate decision on Thursday. The currency has shown limited movement early in the week, with growing expectations of a rate cut by the ECB. After disappointing economic data, the ECB is widely anticipated to lower both its Main Refinancing Operations Rate and Deposit Facility Rate by 25 basis points. Additionally, the December Sentix Investor Confidence survey for the Eurozone dropped to a 13-month low of -17.5, further dampening bullish sentiment for the Euro.

Technical Analysis

* Technical Breakout: EURUSD was traded lower following prior retracement from the resistance level 1.0600. MACD which illustrate bearish bias signal with the formation of death cross suggest the pair to likely further extend its losses.

* Resistance and Support: If the bearish momentum persists, there’s a strong likelihood that the price will potentially head towards the level 1.04850. Conversely, a potential reversal is also to be expected and the price could head back towards 1.06000.

Potential Risks

Looking ahead, traders will keep a close watch on updates and developments surrounding the ECB’s decisions. Additionally, attention will shift to critical U.S. economic indicators, including the upcoming CPI and PPI reports, which are expected to provide further clues on market direction.
