EUR/USD supported by 1.3740 FXstreet.com (Edinburgh) - The EUR/USD keeps the narrow range on Tuesday, meandering around 1.3740 and 1.3760 ahead of Draghi’s speech. EUR/USD focus on Draghi The pair remains buoyant in the mid 1.37s, bolstered by the prevailing risk-on trade on decent Chinese data while market participants wait for the speech by ECB’s Draghi due later in the European midday. Data from the euro area showed auspicious data from Italian Industrial Output, advancing beyond estimates 0.5% inter-month in October, while the GDP came in flat QoQ during the third quarter and contracted 1.8% YoY, matching the previous quarter readings. In the opinion of Analyst Paolo Pizzoli at ING, “Looking ahead, today’s industrial production data, which provide the first piece of hard evidence about 4Q13 developments, look like a good start. The pick-up in export order books and evidence of stock accumulation are useful ingredients for a positive GDP growth reading in 4Q13… All in all, we are inclined to confirm our forecast of a 0.2% growth for Italian GDP in Q4, which would mark the exit of Italy from its 8-quarter long recession”. EUR/USD levels to watch As of writing the pair is up 0.02% at 1.3744 with the next resistance at 1.3787 (high Oct.30) ahead of 1.3818 (high Oct.28) and finally 1.3833 (high Oct.25). On the flip side, a breakdown of 1.3695 (low Dec.9) would open the door to 1.3638 (daily cloud top) and then 1.3620 (low Dec.6).

Flash: EUR/USD, bullet proof bull trend – TDS FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - A strategist team at TD Securities noted that nothing seems to be able to dent the bull trend in EUR/USD at the moment. Key Quotes: “Friday’s strong US jobs number (improving the odds of an earlier QE taper), and this morning’s weak German industrial production number would normally weigh heavily on the pair, but it seems the end of year seasonal trend higher continues to be the dominating force”. “For the rest of the week, central bank speakers will be the fundamental focus for markets, and for EUR/USD in the near term Fed speakers today and Draghi tomorrow offer the biggest potential to inspire a decent move”. “EUR/USD is currently consolidating in the resistance zone near 1.3700/20 and a move above here would look to the October high of 1.3829. A pullback would likely look toward the bottom of the November bull channel in the mid to upper 1.35 area”.
