Trade Of The Day
*The European Central Bank cut its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.25%—its seventh reduction since last June—citing global trade tensions as a key threat to Eurozone growth. The euro held steady following the move, as markets had already priced in the rate cut. Sentiment received a modest boost from growing optimism around U.S.-EU trade negotiations. Former President Trump expressed full confidence that a deal is “100% going to happen,” while Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni emphasized Western unity during her visit. Notably, Trump also paused a planned 20% tariff on EU imports, easing investor nerves.
* EUR/USD continues to trend higher and is currently testing a key resistance level. A golden cross on the MACD signals bullish momentum, while the RSI at 53 supports a moderately positive bias. A confirmed breakout above 1.1385 could open the path toward the next resistance at 1.1455. However, a failure to break higher may see the pair retreat toward support at 1.1270.
Persistent U.S.-China trade tensions may still trigger volatility for the euro.
