On Friday, the head of the San Francisco Federal Reserve, Mary Daly, said that the high pace of rate hikes is slowing down the economy, this pace needs to be slowed down. As a result, yields on government bonds fell, stock indices rose, and the euro closed the day up 75 points. The quote of the single currency again reached the resistance of 0.9864 and the MACD indicator line. The European Central Bank raises rates on the 27th, but we still doubt the market's willingness to switch so quickly from the Fed's leading role in pricing the euro to the ECB's leading position. Eurozone business activity indicators for October will be released today, and a recession is predicted for them.
On the technical side, in order to consolidate the euro in the green, the price needs to go above the descending price channel, marked in green on the daily chart, that is, above the level of 0.9950. Price development above 0.9864 (September 6 low) before breaking 0.9950 in this situation is considered as a false exit above the MACD indicator line. Consolidation below this line may bring the price back to support 0.9724. The Marlin Oscillator is already turning down and does not share the optimism of the price.
The price is already forming a divergence with Marlin on the H4 chart. As long as it's weak. A decline below the MACD line (0.9797) will set the bearish mood for the euro.
