EUR/USD reaches fresh 10-day high
FXStreet (Córdoba) - The EUR/USD took another step higher and printed fresh 10-day highs as the greenback continues to decline after yesterday’s FOMC statement.
The Fed trimmed its bond-buying purchases by extra $10 bn as expected, while issued a new set of quarterly forecasts for GDP, unemployment and inflation. At the end, the Fed sounded a tad more dovish than expected spurring expectations the bank will keep interest rate lows for some time.
The EUR/USD triggered stops on the break of 1.3600 and has climbed to 1.3642, recording its highest in 10 days during the European session. The pair has come a long way from the 1.3510 area where it bottomed out earlier this month.

At time of writing, the EUR/USD is trading at the 1.3635 zone, up 0.30% in the day.
