Euro

EUR/USD is opening 2025 with a fresh two-year-low as sellers extend the bearish trend that started earlier this week. Parity is an obvious point of interest but there’s a big spot of possible support along the way at the 1.0200 handle.

It was a brutal Q4 for EUR/USD as the pair had its most bearish quarterly outlay since Q3 of 2022. But – that prior instance marked a key low and the final month of Q4 showed a higher-low in the pair.

EUR/USD has recorded a 2% decline over the last five sessions, favoring the dollar and placing the euro in a sustained bearish zone.

Euro is poised to mark a fifth daily decline with EUR/USD trading back into support at the monthly range lows. Battlelines drawn on the short-term technical charts.

EUR/USD snaps the series of higher highs and lows from last week after attempting to trade back above the former-support zone around the April low (1.0601).

Euro rallied nearly 3% off the yearly lows with the bulls threatening a larger offensive into the yearly close. Battle lines drawn on the EUR/USD weekly technical chart.

While the headlines out of Europe have been largely negative, price action in the Euro hasn’t quite matched that pace. EUR/USD continues to push-higher while holding 1.0500 and EUR/JPY has pulled back from the early-week sell-off.

Euro rallied 2.5% off the yearly low with EUR/USD carving the December opening-range just below a key pivot zone. Battlelines drawn on the short-term technical charts.

The Euro continued it’s Q4 descent against the US Dollar but it’s the recent build of bearish price action in EUR/JPY that’s of interest going into next week.

Euro is poised to mark a third weekly decline with the push towards parity now testing downtrend support. Battle lines drawn on the EUR/USD weekly technical chart.

EUR/USD has taken a beating so far in Q4 but for the past week and the pair is testing the 1.0500 handle for a second time. For both Euro bears and Yen bulls, EUR/JPY could make for a more attractive argument for directional plays.
