EUR/USD: general analysis

Current trend

Yesterday, the European currency reached its lows at 1.0585 and started correcting up. At present, the pair is trading at 1.0620. The level of 1.0585-1.0570, where large trading volumes were seen yesterday, is considered as the key one.

Moreover, it is worth noting that a number of major banks, such as Goldman Sachs, have significantly reduced EUR/USD short positions. As many analysts suggest, these actions are already priced into the market. If it is so, a large correction in the EUR/USD pair is possible.
