EURUSD - Daily analysis and trading strategy. The new week begins with the G20 meeting in Brazil. It is possible to outline new directions for the development of the world, especially in the hotspots Ukraine and Israel. On Monday, the ECB's President Lagarde speech is expected, where it should become clear whether there will be a change in interest rate policy in Europe after the election of Trump. Lagarde is likely to hint at a cut in the key interest rate. The tariffs that the new team in the White House is expected to introduce to Europe and especially to its industrial part, such as Germany, are already having an impact. Factories will not be able to compete with Chinese and American goods. In addition, the market for goods from Europe is constantly shrinking, and the quality is falling. Currently, 41.5% of German companies report a lack of orders. This percentage will increase significantly in early 2025. A number of manufacturers from Europe are thinking about where to go. Possible locations are the United States, China, and possibly other countries such as Turkey and Southeast Asian countries. The euro has no chance in the near term. The probability of Euro/Dollar parity is very likely even before January 20, 2025 (Donald Trump's Inauguration). Therefore, our strategy remains to sell the euro with the aim of parity and down. If you are entering the market now, wait for the slight upward correction of 50-80 pips to re-open a short position. For this week, we expect the dollar to take a lead of 100-130 pips against the Euro.

The dollar and the Euro depending on the future president of the USA. The most important week, both for the United States and the rest of the world, and also for the currency markets. The choice between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is key for the future of the United States, as well as for the development of economies around the world. On November 5, 2024, Tuesday is the election in the USA. The election of Kamala will definitely not affect the dollar well, while the election of Trump would have a positive effect. But there is one very big BUT. In both elections, unrest is very likely to follow, which would adversely affect the United States. Thus, the "elections 2024" drama will not end with the final decision of the voters. Betting on Gold is much safer in these absolutely uncertain times. Even more so with the news that more and more millionaires are trying to leave the United States. After the employment data, this week, fundamentals will generally be left for later trading when the passions surrounding the election die down. Our advice is to choose gold instead of the dollar or euro. You can't go wrong with gold for medium to long term trading. This week, trading will start neutral in anticipation of the news surrounding the elections, but it is possible that individual players will be quite aggressive in the markets. The probability of very large trade turnovers is very high. In addition to the US election, on Tuesday you can watch the ECB's President Lagarde speech, as well as data on the ISM Services PMI (Oct). On Thursday after the election, pay attention to the Fed Interest Rate Decision, where a 25 basis point cut is expected. If everything around the election goes smoothly (although it is unlikely), then the expected lowering of interest rates in the United States will be the main driving event for the week.

As the elections in the United States approach, we increasingly begin to pay attention to geopolitics, which affects the currency markets, and especially the dollar, at the expense of technical and fundamental analysis. In reality, only one working week remains until the all-important elections, where the world decides which way it will go next. Escalation of the two major conflicts into full-scale wars is a completely possible scenario. This would affect the United States depending on how involved the US would be. A further escalation of the wars could strengthen the dollar as US industry would produce more of the real good - weapons, as opposed to peace, where services are the driving force of the US economy. We expect new developments in the last days of the campaign, be it new attacks against Trump or escalation in the Middle East, after another batch of missile attacks against Tehran (Iran). On Monday, we don't really have any important data for the United States or Europe. On Tuesday we expect data on Consumer Confidence, Housing Price Index and JOLTS Job Openings. Big expectations for fundamental news from the United States are expected in the second half of the week, with the important Nonfarm Payrolls (Oct) report at the end. Expectations for Nonfarm Payrolls (Oct) are for a sharp decline in the numbers to weaker jobs data. That is why the dollar stopped the EURUSD downward trend in the last almost month. Thus, from the great growth of the dollar (EURUSD) from 1.12 at the end of September, to 1.0761 on October 23, 2024. This trend ended in the 43rd week of this year (the last week) to pass into expectations of a decline in the dollar and return to levels above 1.08. Thus, the downtrend is over and a break below 1.0760 is unlikely until at least Friday. Use the moment to trade in a neutral trend with a move of 25-40 pips or an uptrend in anticipation of levels above 1.0860. Let's also mention the BRICS meeting, which leaves the Dollar as the leading world currency in international payments for now, but more and more the Dollar will give way to the power of China, Russia and the rest of the world.

Throughout the month of October, the dollar grew against the Euro. In the three weeks of this month, the dollar gained more than 330 pips. For most of the month, economic data for the United States was upbeat. By all accounts, the US economy looks set to continue to outperform that of Germany and the Eurozone as a whole. In the last two days of the 42nd week (October 17-18), the trend seems to have broken and the dollar's rally has ended. Monday is actually the day where it will be possible to confirm that the downward trend has ended. On Monday October 21, there are no important data for the economy of the United States, but we have data with an average weight for the markets from Germany, namely the Producer Price Index, where data for the month of September is expected to be -0.2%. And since we expect negative inflation compared to the previous month, it is a more likely scenario in which investors will continue to bet on the dollar. Later this week we will learn a lot of important data about the Eurozone, as well as key statements from the ECB. Thus, for Monday, October 21, we expect a light test of the EURUSD levels of 1.0890, but it will probably not be broken and a neutral trend will be established for the day with the possibility of a new rise of the dollar to 1.0820. For the last 2.5 months, the EURUSD level of 1.0810 is the lowest and was reached on Thursday, October 17.

EURUSD Daily Analysis - Consolidation day ahead of key data from both sides of the Atlantic. Since the beginning of October, the dollar has strengthened steadily and smoothly against the Euro. For half of the month, EURUSD movement is only in a downward direction with a gain of 300 pips for the dollar. The dollar is currently in its strongest position since August 2024. Technical analysis shows that the dollar will continue to accumulate new pips against the Euro. Among the fundamental analysis for today Wednesday, the most important is the ECB's President Lagarde speech very late in the evening, in general the focus will be on the decision on Thursday, where the ECB is expected to cut the main interest rate by 25 basis points. In general, very important data are expected on Thursday, both for the Eurozone and for the United States. This would mean that currency trading will consolidate in anticipation of the next day's data. We at World-Signals.com expect the trend to remain today with a slight consolidation at the levels around 1.0865 - 1.0910.

Throughout the first day of the new week EURUSD remained consolidated at the levels of 1.0960/85. Today at 6 o'clock GMT we expect data on Industrial Production for the month of August in Germany, with expectations for a growth of 0.8% compared to the previous month, where we had a drop of -2.4%. The Eurogroup Meeting is another key event of the day that is likely to have an impact on currency markets. A little later in the day, however, the Bank of New Zealand is expected to cut interest rates more aggressively by 0.5% following the new trend of interest rate cuts around the world. From World-Signals.com, we expect a slight strengthening of the Euro, but it is very likely that the downward trend will continue towards the end of the week. Bet on a strategy to sell on slight bounces up to 1.1010+ with daily gains of 20-35 pips or short positions with bigger gains towards the end of the week.
