Technical Analysis: Euro gains across the board, but EUR/USD remains tepid on Monday
The Euro (EUR) is in the green across the major currency bloc, gaining around six-tenths of a percent against the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) and half a percent against the Japanese Yen (JPY) and the Australian Dollar (AUD).
Momentum is notably thin for the Euro against the US Dollar, with the EUR/USD pair up a scant 0.05% on Monday.
The EUR/USD has consolidated firmly into the 200-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA) near 1.0950, keeping the pair trapped below the 50-day SMA near 1.0960 as the pair slumps into the midrange. The EUR/USD remains capped by the 1.1000 major handle in the near-term as 2024 develops into a sideways grind.
Daily candlesticks suggest that downside may be limited moving forward, with the pair sticking to chart territory north of the 200-day SMA at 1.0850, with a rising 50-day SMA putting technical pressure on the EUR/USD from below. The 50-day SMA has confirmed a bullish cross of the 200-day SMA and is pressing into the 1.0900 handle, propping up prices as the pair holds to a pattern of higher lows from October’s bottom bids near 1.0450.

Euro FAQs
What is the Euro?
The Euro is the currency for the 20 European Union countries that belong to the Eurozone. It is the second most heavily traded currency in the world behind the US Dollar. In 2022, it accounted for 31% of all foreign exchange transactions, with an average daily turnover of over $2.2 trillion a day.
EUR/USD is the most heavily traded currency pair in the world, accounting for an estimated 30% off all transactions, followed by EUR/JPY (4%), EUR/GBP (3%) and EUR/AUD (2%).
What is the ECB and how does it impact the Euro?
The European Central Bank (ECB) in Frankfurt, Germany, is the reserve bank for the Eurozone. The ECB sets interest rates and manages monetary policy.
The ECB’s primary mandate is to maintain price stability, which means either controlling inflation or stimulating growth. Its primary tool is the raising or lowering of interest rates. Relatively high interest rates – or the expectation of higher rates – will usually benefit the Euro and vice versa.
The ECB Governing Council makes monetary policy decisions at meetings held eight times a year. Decisions are made by heads of the Eurozone national banks and six permanent members, including the President of the ECB, Christine Lagarde.
How does inflation data impact the value of the Euro?
Eurozone inflation data, measured by the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), is an important econometric for the Euro. If inflation rises more than expected, especially if above the ECB’s 2% target, it obliges the ECB to raise interest rates to bring it back under control.
Relatively high interest rates compared to its counterparts will usually benefit the Euro, as it makes the region more attractive as a place for global investors to park their money.
How does economic data influence the value of the Euro?
Data releases gauge the health of the economy and can impact on the Euro. Indicators such as GDP, Manufacturing and Services PMIs, employment, and consumer sentiment surveys can all influence the direction of the single currency.
A strong economy is good for the Euro. Not only does it attract more foreign investment but it may encourage the ECB to put up interest rates, which will directly strengthen the Euro. Otherwise, if economic data is weak, the Euro is likely to fall.
Economic data for the four largest economies in the euro area (Germany, France, Italy and Spain) are especially significant, as they account for 75% of the Eurozone’s economy.
How does the Trade Balance impact the Euro?
Another significant data release for the Euro is the Trade Balance. This indicator measures the difference between what a country earns from its exports and what it spends on imports over a given period.
If a country produces highly sought after exports then its currency will gain in value purely from the extra demand created from foreign buyers seeking to purchase these goods. Therefore, a positive net Trade Balance strengthens a currency and vice versa for a negative balance.
