This October has been disappointing for the single currency, with the EURUSD dropping by 3.0% to 1.07600, its lowest since 3 July. Such a large decline was last seen in September 2023, followed by a three-month 6.0% rally. It would be hasty to anticipate similar strong growth now, but the pair could rise by 2.0-2.5% to ease its oversold tensions. The EURUSD has already broken through and successfully retested the descending channel’s resistance, which was established on 2 October.
So, I am planning to buy at 1.07850-1.08250, targeting 1.10000-1.10500. A stop-loss could be set at 1.06000.

- The EUR/USD is largely driven by two major economies and actions of the two largest central banks – The Federal Reserve (Fed) and European Central Bank (ECB). So, a trader should be focusing on macroeconomic data for both economies, including GDP, Consumer Price index (CPI), labour market indications, and statements of the central bank officials with a focus on the top officials of the Fed and ECB;
- U.S. 10-year Treasuries yields to German 10-year Bund ration is an indication of the strength of either currency. The higher the value, the stronger the Dollar;
