Details of the Economic Calendar on December 13

On Wednesday, investors' attention was on the results of the Federal Reserve meeting, where the regulator predictably kept the refinancing rate at 5.5%. However, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell clearly indicated a soon-to-come softening of the rhetoric on monetary policy, leading to the sell-off of dollar positions and the rise of U.S. indices.

Key points from Fed Chair Powell's speech:

• The Federal Reserve is proceeding with caution, considering its progress toward tightening monetary policy and the high level of uncertainty.

• The full consequences of tightening monetary policy are probably not yet felt.

• There is an absence of significant unemployment growth, and at the same time, we note positive changes in inflation control, which is encouraging news.

• However, the inflation rate remains high, and the future trajectory of the situation remains unpredictable. Our goal is to achieve a 2% inflation rate.

• The Federal Reserve has already reached or is near the peak of interest rates.

• The decrease in nominal wages in the country is a positive factor.

• We make decisions considering a broad range of data, not limiting ourselves to individual indicators.

• Readiness for additional interest rate hikes is maintained if necessary.

• The Federal Reserve will continue to pursue a tightening policy until it is convinced that inflation is moving towards the 2% Consumer Price Index level.

• Policymakers do not rule out the possibility of another rate hike.

EUR/USD Trading Plan for December 14

The stabilization of the price above the 1.0900 level allows for subsequent growth towards 1.1000. However, a slowdown in pace is possible due to the technical signal of overbought euro rates in the short term.

In the case of further growth, a price move towards the resistance level of 1.2700 is allowed, with a complete recovery of the British currency's value relative to the recent corrective movement. It is worth noting that a sharp change in price over a short period may lead to a local overbought status in short-term timeframes.
