EUR/USD Price Forecast – Euro Continues to Grind Sideways.

The Euro initially tried to rally during the trading session on Wednesday but then turn things around to show signs of negativity. At this point, it looks like we are probably going to go down towards the 1.20 level, although I am not necessarily looking to sell this pair. Quite frankly, this is a pullback that is desperately needed, and therefore I think that it is welcomed by both bullish and the parish traders alike.

The ECB has been active behind the scenes doing what is tantamount to yield curve control, so that may work against the Euro going forward. The Euro has been rising rather rapidly and although there has been no direct intervention in the currency markets, the reality is that the market had gotten far ahead of itself as it reached towards the 1.23 level. The weekly chart looks somewhat ominous, but really at the end of the day I think there are plenty of buyers near the 1.20 level, extending down to the 1.19 level where buyers would be looking for value based upon the idea of stimulus in the United States.

However, it should be noted that the $1.9 trillion stimulus package that Joe Biden suggested is not necessarily a “slam dunk”, and I think at this point in time it is likely that we will see a lot of noise when it comes to the idea of that stimulus shrinking the US dollar. The consensus is of course that the US dollar continues to fall in value, but we had gotten so overextended that a correction was desperately needed. We are still in the midst of that correction.
