01.07.202204:59 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Forecast for EUR/USD on July 1, 2022

Mixed data on Europe and the US came out on Thursday, which led to a breakthrough of counter-dollar currencies into correction, the dollar index lost 0.39% on the day. If you look closely at adjacent markets, and there the yield on 5-year US government bonds decreased from 3.13% to 3.04% and the S&P 500 fell by 0.88% while gold fell by 0.55%, then the idea arises that the growth of the euro and other currencies occurred primarily due to the short-term weakness of the dollar itself. This weakness may extend the corrective growth of the euro to the MACD line on the daily chart (1.0515), but then we are waiting for a new round of weakening of the single currency.

The eurozone CPI for June will be released today, the forecast for it is 8.4% Y/Y against 8.1% Y/Y in May. The US ISM index of business activity in the manufacturing sector for June will also be published, the forecast for which is 54.9 against 56.1 earlier. The discrepancy in the data may help the euro to technically finalize the correction.

On the EUR/USD daily chart, the price is near the target level of 1.0493, which was not worked out yesterday, this is a technical factor of the price's desire to go above this resistance to the MACD line (1.0515). The price could also fall from current levels if the dollar's weakness was due to speculative reasons, then large players will open long positions on the dollar due to the positions of euro optimists. Ultimately, we are still waiting for the euro at the target level of 1.0340 - at the low of January 2017.

The price has settled above the MACD indicator line on the four-hour chart, but the Marlin Oscillator is still in the negative zone. As in the daily chart, the current situation is not defined. Consolidating below the MACD line will increase the chances of moving downward, settling above the level of 1.0493 will slightly delay the euro with a reversal into a new wave of weakening.
