EUR/USD Technical Analysis: EUR/USD trading below 1.1700 post-US CPI

  • EUR/USD is having a 30-pip boost from daily lows after the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) came in line with expectations at 2.3% in June. 
  • At the time of writing the bull breakout seems to be short-lived as the market is rejecting the 100-period simple moving average. However the picture remains unclear just after the news release as market participants are repositioning themselves. Technicals suggest a continuation of the drift lower as long as the market stays below 1.1700.
  • Earlier in Europe, the European Central Bank minutes sounded rather dovish weighing on the Euro.
