Current outlook

Sellers took their time at the outset of the European session, but almost completely pared Friday's gains by the close as EURUSD sank to 1.1923. In two hours, the price action dropped to the trendline (from the low of 1.1801). After a brief correction, the decline picked up momentum to the 67-degree line (1.1920).

In Asian trading, buyers managed to pare 50% of yesterday's losses. Today’s key driver was the aussie, which climbed against the dollar after today’s RBA meeting. At its meeting, the regulator kept its current monetary policy on hold, as well as the parameters of the Term Funding Facility and the government bond purchase program.

Chinese macro data lent additional support to risk assets. The Caixin/Markit Manufacturing PMI for November came in at 54.9 (vs. the 53.5 forecast).

At the time of writing, the euro was trading at 1.1964. A candlestick reversal pattern has taken shape on the daily TF, while the news flow is helping buyers win back losses. They are doing quite well in terms of the trend.
