Details of the Economic Calendar on December 19

On Tuesday, final inflation data for the Eurozone was published, showing a slowdown to 2.4% in November. However, actual figures matched the preliminary estimate that had already been priced in. For this reason, the market ignored such crucial statistical data.

Speculators paid attention to the statement by ECB representative Andrea Enria. He noted that the question of reducing interest rates should be considered only if inflation slows down to 2.0%. Despite the decrease in inflation, it is still above this threshold. Thus, the ECB may start reducing interest rates after the Federal Reserve. This process is likely to be gradual, once again creating the prospect of a change in the interest rate disparity in favor of Europe. Therefore, the ECB's interest rate level may be higher than that of the Federal Reserve, contributing to the rise of the euro.

For the further rise of the euro-dollar pair, the stabilization of the price above the 1.1000 level is important. This step will lead to a new wave of growth in the volume of long positions, indicating the extension of the upward trend. In the case of a possible downward scenario, traders may consider this option on the next price rebound from the resistance level of 1.1000. It is important to note that, despite the recent correction and a possible price rebound, the market maintains an upward trend, confirmed by the sequence of corrections and pullbacks.
