EUR/USD Analysis
This pair did little yesterday until after London closed and there were comments appearing from a Fed member suggesting a rate hike in September was more likely than not. This sent the USD up quite quickly during late trading and although the EUR was not the weakest currency by far, it had an impact on this pair too. The price continued to fall during the Asian session and the anticipated support level at 1.0868 was breached, although there are signs that it is holding up with the price seemingly unable to stay below that level for very long.
This means that the most reliable nearby levels are now 1.0813 for support and a broken supportive inflection above that may now have flipped to resistance at around 1.0892, possible leading to a nice selling confluence at the round number of 1.0900.
There is nothing due today regarding the EUR. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of ADP Non-Farm Employment Change data at 1:15pm, followed by the Trade Balance at 1:30pm and ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI at 3pm.
