On Friday night we noticed a sharp shift in risk appetite and noted that it didn’t bode well for EUR/USD on Sunday’s open.
The pair did indeed fall sharply, as the G20 meeting over the weekend didn’t yield any comments that inspired confidence in the markets. However, EUR/USD eventually climbed higher throughout the European and US trading sessions as most of the major currencies remain in consolidation mode. Overall, the trend is still bearish for the pair and I think a breakout to the downside could be imminent, which is why I chose “short EUR/USD” as my analyst pick of the week. Indeed, there is little in the way of Euro-zone economic data scheduled to be released this week, leaving EUR/USD likely to be driven by risk trends.
