EUR/USD. Analysis and Forecast - ExpertFX School

The EUR/USD pair started the current week on a positive note, holding above the 1.1730 level. In the event of a pullback, the downward potential appears limited, given the divergence in expectations for European Central Bank and Federal Reserve policy, as well as ahead of key central bank events scheduled for this week.

As expected, last Thursday the ECB left interest rates unchanged, maintaining optimism about economic growth and inflation. In addition, the regulator emphasized that it would be guided by incoming data at its meetings, without making specific commitments in advance regarding the future path of rates. This approach reduced expectations of further borrowing cost cuts and supported the euro and EUR/USD.

As a result, traders lowered the probability of another ECB rate cut before spring to around 40%. This gives the euro an advantage over the Fed, which is expected to cut rates this week. The CME Group's FedWatch tool indicates more than a 90% probability of a 25 bp rate cut on Wednesday. These expectations weaken the U.S. dollar, creating a favorable backdrop for EUR/USD growth.

Even so, euro buyers remain cautious for now, preferring to wait for the outcome of the two-day FOMC meeting on monetary policy scheduled for Wednesday. Traders are focused on signals regarding the Fed's future course, which will determine the short-term movement of the dollar and have a significant impact on EUR/USD. In this context, fundamentals suggest that any pullback may offer a good opportunity to enter long positions.

Today, attention should be paid to speeches by ECB official Isabel Schnabel and ECB President Christine Lagarde.

From a technical perspective, oscillators on the daily chart are positive, prices are trading above the 9-day EMA, and the 9-day EMA is positioned above the 14-day EMA, which is currently aligned with the 1.1700 round level. This indicates a bullish outlook for the pair.

The nearest resistance is at the 1.1700 round level, above which the pair will reach a monthly high on the way toward 1.1800. Support lies at the 1.1700 round level, followed by 1.1685. The 50-SMA at 1.1660 will serve as the key pivot point.
