05.11.202403:34 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Overview of EUR/USD on November 5; The Euro Restores Fair Value

Exchange Rates 05.11.2024 analysis

The EUR/USD currency pair displayed a highly unusual move on Friday (as we noted over the weekend). To recap, key reports that the market had been anticipating all week (or possibly even longer) failed dramatically. The Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) figure fell far short of even the lowest forecasts, and although factors like U.S. hurricanes that affected the October figure are discussed, the result remains disappointing. As we mentioned over the weekend, the dollar's rise on poor NFP results was illogical, so a subsequent decline was expected—precisely what happened on Monday.

Thus, the EUR/USD pair has finally started a corrective upward movement. This development is unsurprising, as various indicators have been signaling this for the past two to three weeks. We still expect a downward trend in the medium term, but the pair may correct by another 100 pips this week.

Of course, everything now depends on the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting. Given the poor labor market report, we can expect a more dovish tone, perhaps even a rate cut of 0.5% (although unlikely) or any action that could increase pressure on the dollar. However, we believe the market has already wholly or almost entirely priced in the Federal Reserve's monetary easing cycle, meaning there are no grounds for a significant drop in the U.S. dollar. We anticipate a correction, followed by the resumption of the downtrend that has been forming over the past month.

It's worth noting that another key report, the ISM Manufacturing PMI, also missed expectations badly. Although seeing this indicator below the 50.0 threshold is no longer surprising, October's figure fell even further. While the ISM index doesn't currently impact the economic outlook, it certainly doesn't help the dollar. Thus, there were ample reasons for a dollar decline on Friday. Monday saw a "restoration of fair value." Everything depends on the Fed's actions and the U.S. presidential election results, and both are happening this week.

The average volatility of the EUR/USD pair over the last five trading days is currently at 61 pips, classified as "low." On Tuesday, we expect the pair to move between the levels of 1.0828 and 1.0950. The higher linear regression channel has turned downward, indicating that the global downtrend remains intact. The CCI indicator has formed several bullish divergences, signaling a potential correction.

Nearest Support Levels:

  • S1 – 1.0864
  • S2 – 1.0803
  • S3 – 1.0742

Nearest Resistance Levels:

  • R1 – 1.0925
  • R2 – 1.0986
  • R3 – 1.1047

Trading Recommendations:

The EUR/USD pair has started a correction. Over recent weeks, we've emphasized our medium-term expectation for euro weakness, so we fully support the downtrend. It's possible that the market has priced in all or almost all expected Fed rate cuts. If that's the case, the dollar may lack further bearish catalysts. Short positions remain valid with targets at 1.0761 and 1.0742 as long as the price stays below the moving average. If you're trading based on pure technicals, long positions are currently relevant with targets of 1.0925 and 1.0950, though this is only a corrective phase.

Explanation of Illustrations:

Linear Regression Channels help determine the current trend. If both channels are aligned, it indicates a strong trend.

Moving Average Line (settings: 20,0, smoothed) defines the short-term trend and guides the trading direction.

Murray Levels act as target levels for movements and corrections.

Volatility Levels (red lines) represent the likely price range for the pair over the next 24 hours based on current volatility readings.

CCI Indicator: If it enters the oversold region (below -250) or overbought region (above +250), it signals an impending trend reversal in the opposite direction.
