Fed rate hikes unlikely in 2021

“A clearer dollar uptrend is only likely when Fed rate hikes are more clearly visible on the horizon and that still seems more of a 2022 than a 2021 story.”

In the meantime, it wouldn’t be surprising if in the next few weeks EUR/USD re-tests 1.20.” 

“Today though, the pair may find that 1.1915 (the July and August high), is the next barrier to excitement.”
