The Euro (EUR) shows marginal losses against the US Dollar (USD) on Wednesday and has returned to levels just above 1.1400 during the European trading session after rejection at 1.1430. A new round of hostilities in Iran and investors’ cautiousness ahead of the release of the minutes of the latest Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting are keeping Euro bulls in check.
US President Donald Trump affirmed earlier on Wednesday that the ceasefire is over and that, in his view, the memorandum of understanding is no longer in effect. These comments follow a fresh bout of reciprocal attacks between the US and Iran, and the revocation of the US authorisation to sell Iranian Oil.
The market reaction has been tame so far, as investors continue to view these events as manoeuvres to gain leverage in the negotiation process. Beyond that, investors remain wary of placing large directional bets on the USD ahead of the release of the minutes of June’s Fed meeting, eager for further insight into the central bank’s monetary policy plans.
Technical Analysis: A potential bearish flag is in progress
EUR/USD trades at 1.1405, at the bottom of the immediate ascending channel, that might turn out to be a bearish flag formation. Momentum indicators in four-hour charts are turning bearish, with the Relative Strength Index (14) easing toward 44, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) slipping back into slightly negative territory, suggesting that bullish attempts are losing traction.
A break of the channel bottom and Tuesday's low at 1.1400 would boost expectations of a bearish flag formation that would be confirmed below the late June lows in the 1.1325-1.1330 area. The pattern's measured target is just below the late May 2025 low, at 1.1210.
On the topside, Tuesday's highs around 1.1459 and last week's trading peak in the area of 1.1475 are likely to challenge bulls in case of a positive reaction. An unlikely breach of those levels would clear the path towards the mid-June highs, near 1.1620.
