FUNDAMENTAL
\n OVERVIEW<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

USD:<\/p>\n

The US dollar strengthened across the board yesterday after the US PCE data.
\n The reaction was honestly odd because literally nothing has changed. The Core
\n figures were in line with forecasts and the market pricing held steady, with 35%
\n chance of a rate hike in September. Therefore, I would dismiss it as just noise.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, the key events will be Fed Chair Warsh\u2019s speech at the
\n Jackson Hole Symposium tomorrow, a potential US-Iran deal in the coming days and
\n the US CPI report on September 11. <\/p>\n

After the Treasury buyback announcement and Bessent\u2019s \u201cverbal\u201d intervention
\n to suppress long-term yields, traders will be eager to see whether Fed Chair Warsh
\n leans against the easing in financial conditions.<\/p>\n

If he doesn\u2019t, the US dollar will likely come under renewed pressure from
\n further easing in financial conditions and the dovish repricing in near-term
\n interest rate expectations. On the other hand, if he pushes back saying things
\n like “recent easing in financial conditions, if sustained, could
\n complicate the process of returning inflation to our target” or “if
\n recent easing threatens progress toward price stability, we will not hesitate
\n to respond appropriately” and so on, the market may interpret it as a
\n signal for a potentially hawkish September FOMC and give the greenback a boost.\n <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

EUR:<\/p>\n

On the EUR side, the ECB is
\n widely expected to hike interest rates by 25 bps in September, bringing the
\n policy rate to 2.50%. This was also confirmed by “ECB sources” which
\n reported that the central bank is ready to raise interest rates in September
\n but added that there’s little appetite to signal further tightening afterwards.<\/p>\n

This means that the current
\n market pricing of 40 bps of tightening by year-end might be mispriced and the
\n euro could suffer a little if the economic data starts weakening. Nevertheless,
\n the EUR\/USD pair will be driven mainly by the US dollar side for now.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

EURUSD TECHNICAL
\n ANALYSIS \u2013 DAILY TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On the daily chart, we can
\n see that EURUSD<\/a>broke above the major
\n trendline and extended the gains into the 1.17 handle following the US Treasury
\n buyback announcement. The natural target for the buyers should be the swing
\n high around the 1.1850 level, but the fundamentals will need to remain steady
\n for the trend to continue. <\/p>\n

EURUSD TECHNICAL
\n ANALYSIS \u2013 4 HOUR TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On the 4 hour chart, we have
\n an upward trendline defining the bullish momentum. The buyers will likely lean
\n on the trendline with a defined risk below it to keep pushing into new highs.
\n The sellers, on the other hand, will look for a break lower to pile in for a
\n drop into the 1.15 handle next. <\/p>\n

EURUSD TECHNICAL ANALYSIS \u2013
\n 1 HOUR TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On the 1 hour chart, we have
\n a minor downward trendline defining the pullback into the 4-hour trendline. The
\n sellers will likely lean on the downward trendline with a defined risk above it
\n to position for a break below the 4-hour trendline and target new lows. The
\n buyers, on the other hand, will want to see the price breaking higher \u00a0The red lines define the average daily range<\/a> for today.<\/p>\n

UPCOMING CATALYSTS<\/p>\n

Today<\/a> we get the US Jobless Claims figures. Tomorrow,
\n we conclude the week with Fed Chair Warsh\u2019s speech at the Jackson Hole
\n Symposium.<\/p>\n
