Euro Moves Higher Ahead Of The Weekend

EUR/USD continues its attempts to gain additional upside momentum as the U.S. dollar is losing ground against a broad basket of currencies.

EUR/USD traders remain focused on U.S. stimulus talks and Brexit news. At this point, there is nothing new on this front.

In the U.S., Republicans and Democrats continue their negotiations. Democrats have signaled that they were willing to give airlines $25 billion in aid if this aid was part of a comprehensive coronavirus aid package.

It looks like the market believes that a new coronavirus aid package is inevitable, and the only question is whether it can be delivered before the election.

Meanwhile, negotiations between EU and UK continue, and the latest reports signaled that the sides were making some progress which lifted the mood of euro and pound bulls.

While the general picture appears to be favorable for riskier assets, there’s still plenty of uncertainty which limits the losses of the U.S. dollar. That said, the U.S. Dollar Index has just managed to get below 93.50 and is heading towards the nearest support at 93.35. In case the U.S. Dollar Index moves below 93.35, it will gain additional downside momentum which will be bullish for EUR/USD.
