The EUR/USD currency pair showed no interesting movements during Thursday's trading. Earlier, the European currency demonstrated decent growth, and two days prior, it also rose well. Over these two days, the euro gained about 100 pips, which is quite good. However, there is no rationale for this movement, as the pair remains in a weak upward trend bordering on a flat condition. Essentially, what we have been observing for several weeks is a flat. The price spends 98% of the time between 1.1377 and 1.1461. Although there is formally an upward trend in the market, there were no notable publications or events in the European Union yesterday, while U.S. reports prompted a slight increase in the dollar, as they did not underperform market expectations. However, the reports themselves were secondary, so we did not see strong movements again. For the past three weeks, there has not only been a flat in the EUR/USD pair, but volatility has remained extremely low.
On the 5-minute timeframe, only one trading signal was formed on Thursday. For several hours, under minimal volatility, the price attempted to break through the area of 1.1461-1.1466, eventually succeeding. Naturally, we did not see a strong downward movement after the signal was formed, but the price moved about 15 pips downwards.
On the hourly timeframe, both trend lines have been broken and are no longer relevant. The flat may be coming to an end, as the pair has surpassed the 1.1461 level. Considering all the market events and movements over the past months, we believe the euro should continue to rise – and much more strongly than it currently is. However, in fact, the current upward movement is a correction. After the correction, a new trend phase begins...
On Friday, novice traders may remain in short positions targeting 1.1363-1.1377, as the price has consolidated below the area of 1.1461-1.1466. Long positions may be opened with a target of 1.1527-1.1531 if the price consolidates above the area of 1.1461-1.1466. We still would not expect strong movements.
On the 5-minute timeframe, levels to consider include 1.1267-1.1275, 1.1363-1.1377, 1.1461-1.1466, 1.1527-1.1531, 1.1584-1.1594, 1.1655-1.1666, and 1.1745-1.1754. On Friday, the European Union will release the second estimate of June inflation, which is of little interest. In the U.S., data on the housing market will also be published, along with the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index, which is not among the most significant reports.
