EUR/USD corrects from 3-week highs
FXstreet.com (Córdoba) - Following yesterday's rally, the EUR/USD saw a quick spike to above 1.3700 at the beginning of the European session and printed a 3-week high of 1.3704 before pulling back.
The EUR/USD failed to sustain gains above 1.3700 and dropped to a low of 1.3662 before stabilizing in a range. At time of writing, the EUR/USD is trading at the 1.3670 area, 0.2% below its opening price. In the absence of major economic indicators scheduled for today, focus now turns to central bankers' speeches at the World Economic Forum, including the ECB President Draghi.
EUR/USD technical outlook
"Current downswing after 1.3706 high is a minor consolidation pattern, preceding next leg upwards, to 1.3817, en route to 1.3893 peak", says Stoyan Mihaylov, analyst at DeltaStock.com. "Key intraday support lies at 1.3650, followed by the crucial 1.3585".
