FxWirePro: EUR/USD neutral in the near-term, scope for downward resumption

  • The EUR /USD pair declined on Wednesday as dollar firmed on expectations of a U.S. interest rate increase in June and the market discounted a surprise win by France's far-right presidential candidate.
     
  • The U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to hold interest rates steady after concluding its two-day meeting on Wednesday, but it might focus on future rate hikes.
     
  • U.S. private employers added 177,000 jobs in April, slightly above economists' expectations, a report by a payrolls processor showed on Wednesday.
     
  • Economists had forecast the ADP National Employment Report would show a gain of 175,000 jobs, with estimates ranging from 140,000 to 236,000.
     
  • The ongoing weakness is set to continue for this pair as the resistance level at 1.0980 is likely to act as strong barrier to the bulls and bring a further decline towards lower levels.
     
  • To the upside, the immediate resistance can be seen at 1.0934, a break above this level would expose the pair to next resistance level at 1.0980.
     
  • To the downside, immediate support can be seen at 1.0883, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.0851.
