EUR/USD resilient above 1.09
FXStreet (Mumbai) - EUR/USD quickly recovered from close to lows and trades flat in the European morning, attempting to test the 1.09 handle, amid a slight pullback seen in the USD while traders await German Ifo Business climate data for fresh cues on the major.
EUR/USD holds 1.09
The EUR/USD trades almost unchanged at 1.0922 levels, having previously posted day’s high at 1.0938 and day’s low at 1.0904 levels. EUR/USD fell back in red this morning, although remains underpinned by the recent series of upbeat PMI reading across the Euro area economies, as traders now await the only data in the EUR economic calendar for further momentum on the pair.
German business morale is expected to extend its rally to an eight month high in March, with the headline Ifo Business Climate Index expected to rise to 107.3 during March, up from the 106.8 seen in February.
Moreover, a muted US dollar also fails to provide any impetus to the EUR/USD pair. The US dollar index, measuring the relative strength of the greenback against a basket of six major currencies trades flat at 97.41.
Meanwhile, German Ifo and US consumer goods data are likely to draw all the attention and set a clear direction for the main currency pair.
EUR/USD Technical Levels
The pair has an immediate resistance at 1.0973 (March 23 High) levels, above which gains could be extended to 1.10 levels. On the flip side, support is seen at 1.0904 (Today’s Low) levels, below which it could extend losses to 1.0850 levels.
