Yesterday was another day of high volatility. The euro traded in the range of 176 points, closing the day with an increase of 74 points. The price has moved above the resistance level of 0.9724, now the 0.9855 target is just ahead. The daily-scale MACD indicator line is approaching the level.
According to the first version of the correction, the growth may end in this area. According to the second option, the growth may continue to the level of 0.9955 - to the low of July 14, which will create a false exit of the price above the MACD line. If later the price returns and settles under the MACD line, then the subsequent decline may be below 0.9520.
The media cite arguments for the euro's growth: the market has fully priced in the Federal Reserve's November rate hike of 0.75% and even the "ceiling" of the rate of 4.85% in March next year. We allow such an interpretation and quote the euro at current levels at a rate of 4.85%, but then political factors should be removed from the components, including the latest event - sabotage at the Druzhba oil pipeline in Poland. Oil rose by 2.44% yesterday, the stock index S&P 500 by 2.60%. That is, there is a short-term return of market players to risk. At the same time, yields on US government bonds are not declining. So far, we are seeing a "shake-up" of the market on US inflation data. Yesterday, the core CPI for September showed an increase from 6.3% y/y to 6.6% y/y, while the overall CPI fell from 8.3% y/y to 8.2% y/y.
On the four-hour chart, the price settled above the level of 0.9724 and MACD line. Growth stopped at the balance line, which shows the consolidation of the "bulls" for a short-term turning point in their favor. Marlin Oscillator is in the growth zone. We are waiting for the end of the correction either at the nearest level of 0.9855 or at 0.9950, which is more likely due to the nature of yesterday's reversal.
